Orange sporangia --
Air-borne spores;
Cedar-apple rust.
.
.
This orange fungus is growing on a red cedar tree, and at this time of the year the fungus releases spores from its orange sporangia (spore cases). The spores are carried by the wind. The spores that happen to land on apple trees will infect their leaves. Soon rust-colored fungal spores from the apple leaves will be released, infecting red cedar trees. That's why this is called Cedar-Apple Rust. The fungal infection alternates from red cedar trees to apple trees.

Happy May Day!!!
For many people, including me, this is the first day of summer, according to ancient tradition. Some cultures call this day Beltane, but I just call it May Day!!! Happy Summer!!!
Close shot to a rusted safety exit of the water at the top of the water supply building in my area. Proving that time passes and changes things.
i love rust but in this photo i decided to edit it giving it a cold tone. What pictures can you see in this.
While I’m not sure this spot bears an official title of junkyard, it does at least appear to be a yard of junk. Rusted metal and haphazardly placed tires, among many other things in disrepair dot the yard. Still, I’m always drawn to images like that, sooooo *snap snap*.
Here we have a Minneapolis Threshing Company steam tractor. Really sad to see that the boiler was rusted out. This beautiful piece of history can be seen at the Mollie Kathleen gold mine in Cripple Creek, Colorado.

I don't think this is exactly what Neil Young had in mind, but it seemed appropriate for a caption.

Carrie Furnace - abandoned ironworks
National Historic Landmark
Carrie Furnace is a former blast furnace located along the Monongahela River in the industrial town of Rankin near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. It had formed a part of the Homestead Steel Works. The Carrie Furnaces were built in the 1880s and they operated until 1982.
During its peak, the site produced 1000 to 1250 tons of iron per day. All that is left of the site are furnaces #6 and #7, which operated from 1907 - 1978.
In 1898 Carrie Furnamce was purchased by Andrew Carnegie and incorporated into U.S. Steel in 1901. In 2005 it was purchased by Allegheny County. In 2006 the two remaining furnaces were designated as a National Historic Landmark.
