A shackle on the Hatston Slip, Kirkwall that has seen better days. Looking over to Kirkwall from the Hatston Slip, wind gusting over 40kts. Managed to park the car at an angle to give me the shelter for this 10second exposure. Really nice light today pity about the wind though:) Why have they removed the Note function from this new Flickr? i liked to point things out in my pics.
Rust Monster
Though it is known by many names among many tongues, it is most commonly referred to as the rust monster. It does not kill its victims out of savage ferocity, but rather as a means to an end. The large bug-like creatures are rather dull; however, many have learned that it is far easier to a feed upon the savory metal weapons and armor of a deceased victim rather than to waste energy fighting them. Perhaps if this aspiring Knight-errant had kept his wits about him, he would have realized his great fortune that he was fallen upon by only a young specimen.

one of the big green dump bin at the marina has most of the paint scratched off where the fork of the lift-truck scrapes the sides and now the rust is taking over. Makes great patterns and colour combination
This was shot for the rust challenge this week...I am definitely rusty at getting out and shooting. This is an example of caring my Coolpix A with me everywhere.

Though rust is probably welcomed nowhere, it has its beauty. Different shades and crumbling paint can make a picture.
The original La Grande Hermine (or Big Weasel) was sailed up the St. Lawrence River by Jacque Cartier in 1535. A replica of the vessel was made as a tour boat in the 1960's in Quebec City. The replica was sold to a young entrepreneur with dreams of making it just the thing to bring hungry visitors to his harbour side restaurant. The tour boat was sailed up the St. Lawrence from Quebec City in the late 1990s, then intentionally moored (anchored) and listed (leaning) to the harbour floor. The harbour side restaurant never did get built, as the entrepreneur went bankrupt shortly afterwards.
Arsonists finished off the floating restaurant in the early 2000's, leaving a slowly rusting hulk on the Lake Ontario shoreline.
The rust foreshadows the inevitable future of the rails in St. Thomas. Once the incredibly busy, productive hub of rail commerce in Southern Ontario, there is little here to connect us any longer, and, I feel, the situation will grow bleaker, faster.

Tenuous Link: went belly-up.
quietly rusting away, steel is but a temporary state, it comes from the earth and to the earth it will return
