HEADING DOWN HWY 319 NEAR Medart, Florida, there is a collection of old Ford trucks.
Rusty and overgrown with vines and grass, they are lined up neatly on the right side of the road. Anyone who knows their Fords will notice that they’re even lined up in chronological order, dating from the early 1900’s to the mid-70’s. The trucks are an unusual worse-for-wear site on the scenic byway, but their apocalyptic charm attracts more photographers than any of the natural scenery. Where did they come from?
Placed here by Pat Harvey, they had all been used on the nearby Harvey family farm. They aren’t deserted—Pat loves the old buckets of rust, and has memories to share about each and every one. Originally owned by Pat’s dad and used for parts, the trucks and the land they’re on now belong to Pat, who lined them up by year just to see what they looked like in the correct order.
Torn between junk and art, the trucks are in questionable standing. While Pat enjoys sharing his beloved vehicles, vandals do occasionally have their way with them, and the city has an ordinance regarding too many junked cars in one place—even photogenic, neatly ordered ones. So far these issues haven’t been pressing enough for Pat Harvey to take any sort of action to remove them. The community and photographers enjoy their rugged charm and appreciate the automotive display that’s not quite a collection, and not quite a wreck.
I am told these flowers are called "privy roses" because they were often planted near outhouses to combat odor. They are common throughout the Bear Lake Valley and have taken over at this great old house.
Thanks, Jim, for getting permission to explore this property.

A small section of a car brake disc. Always amazes me how quickly rust will appear on the face of a disc. After a heavy rain this afternoon, these rust spots developed within two hours
I found this in a giant abandoned steel factory in Völklingen, Germany. Parts of this can be visited.
Dieses Motiv fand ich im stillgelegten Stahlwerk Völklinger Hütte im Saarland.
I wasn’t planning on falling in love today—but then I spotted this rust bucket with charm for days and a windshield that’s seen more sunsets than I have awkward crushes...

Ezekiel 24:6 “Wherefore thus saith the Lord GOD: Woe to the bloody city, to the caldron whose rust is therein, and whose rust is not gone out of it! bring it out piece by piece; no lot is fallen upon it.”

Yet another impressive sculpture I stumbled across in Dinan , Brittany a few years ago. As usual I did not make a note of the artist.
In de haven van Helgoland zijn prachtige structuren door roest op de havenpalen door getijdewisselingen en metalen ontstaan.
In the port vanHelgoland its magnificent structures rust harbor piles caused by tidal fluctuations and metals.
Thanks for taking time to fave, comment and look at my work. I really appreciate.
I was desperate to get out of the house on Sunday morning. The weather forecast was awful. Apparently four inches of rain had already fallen on much of the UK in the last 24 hours, and it was still pouring. I didn't care. I wanted fresh air: sea air. I was going no matter what. Two hours driving, 120 miles in the dark, through the rain. To make things worse, by the time I arrived it was gusting 40 mph winds too. Not alot but enough to make it even more unpleasant. I sat in the car for a while wondering what I could do. Eventually I steeled myself and decided to confront the weather. It wasn't nice outside and i plodded along the beach to the other end until I reached this old water outflow to the sea. I stood behind it for half an hour, to try to get some shelter, although the rain was blowing over my head. Eventually I turned my camera towards it to capture the wonderful rust, wet with rain. Behind is St Cwyfan's, the Church in the Sea. I didn't stay until the sea had completely surrounded it.
A transition to something a bit different from a Show 'n' Shine. No idea as to what model this old timer is, but it does not matter, as there is not enough showing to appreciate the actual car. No shine to this set of wheels, but most will know how much I like the look of rust and of shapes.
Will likely take two clicks to get to full view, but worth it if you like texture.
