Iron rusts from disuse; water loses its purity from stagnation... “Nature is the source of all true knowledge. She has her own logic, her own laws, she has no effect without cause nor invention without necessity.” - by Leonardo da Vinci
What a contrast we have here, which the daisy as pure life of glowing out in the radiant beauty in the sunshine of delicacy and on the other hand the Iron, just glimmers out the charm of decay of rustic age, that is peeling away and shows us the textures of the sweet life to us!
Many times I have walked by, this spot on the Castle Fields Boat Docks of the Black Country Museum. And this time I spotted these side-by-side together that was bedded in concrete, of an Iron bar standing so proudly with this charming daisy and overlooking the Narrowboats, that lies in the graveyard of the canal boats around here.
The beauty we have photography that can be created by the simplest things, that lies around us and yet we tend to overlook what possibility that arise!
The Iron Road was installed along a stretch of disused railway embankment deep in the Forest of Dean.
Twenty evenly spaced railway sleepers placed on the gentle curve of a disused railway line bring the spirit of the Forest’s industrial past to life.
Carved out of the wood are poetic images of natural or industrial life-a feather, a leaf, a wheel, a factory or a cloud.
The jar with water pouring out refers to the stream running under the embankment. The wood is a Eucalyptus called Jarrah, and the sleepers were obtained from the London underground.

The 1858 cast iron "Little Cary"building located at 620 Broadway in the NoHo (an acronym for North of Houston St) section of downtown Manhattan.It's labeled as the "little Cary Building"because it's a near copy of a building (also a cast iron structure) built two years before it on 105 Chambers St called by that name.Cast iron façades was an early invention back then and it was used on buildings to make them look like masonry,and they were cheaper than cement.If you zoom in you can see the metal nuts still fastened to the wall and the faux masonry bricks,and even some signs of rust.The six-story,palazzo like structure had to quickly be put up because another building where new inventions from the 1858 World's Fair were being displayed had burned down,some newer items were shown at this new one.That was another reason for the cast iron facade on the new building,because the material was considered "fire proof"daytoninmanhattan.blogspot.com/2012/01/1858-cast-iron-no-...
Sorry no ducks on this creek ..think they flew south. A lovely old iron bridge - no longer for trains but bikes and humans can walk across.
When I were a lad there was a man with a horse and cart and the man used to stop in the street where I grew up shouting 'any old iron'. This old Iron escaped his attention and belonged to my gran. Judging by the weight of it this explains why gran had arms like steel girders and never lost an argument with grandad :-)

Hello my amazing Flickr friends !!
Today is a red day at Color my World Daily and the theme at Macro Mondays is iron. I have a hate / love relationship with iron. I had an iron deficiency for several years, so I had to take iron quite often. I’m always stressing about having enough iron in my blood… So that is the hate part. As for the love part: I absolutely love to take macro pictures of anything iron and the more texture the better. I truly enjoyed taking pictures for this theme and I hope you will like it. Have a great Monday my friends !
Mucho, mucho amor for you my friends !! Have a beautiful day !!!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!! And see you soon on Flickr !
Raised in this madness, you're on your own
It made you fearless, nothing to lose
Dreams are a drug here, they get in your way
That's what you need to fight day by day
You can't live without the fire
It's the heat that makes you strong
'Cause you're born to live and fight it all the way
You can hide what lies inside you
It's the only thing you know
You're embracing that, never walk away
Don't walk away
