Some of the steam pipes end on. A nicely rusted relic from long gone days. Still even in the bush, coming across such things adds to the experience for me. I have an inbuilt curiousity about these old left overs, but if it were a more modern thing dumped there I'd be angry - another hundred years I'd be pleased to see it - Maybe I'm a bit mixed up?

At the foot of the parking lot behind my husband's office is a very large steel shed. I've admired the contrast between the fresh young saplings that sprout up along the perimeter and the aging structure. Today the scene was more harmonious as the saplings themselves are turning to rust.
To lend a painterly feel to the scene I flattened the image, added a rust texture layer using luminosity as my blending mode, brought back some structure with a faint line drawing, added a border and finally brought back a bit of contrast. I certainly could have gone the grungy route, but I think a softer touch is more suitable here.
Ik hou enorm van het stadsleven. Er is altijd beweging, altijd iets te doen. Heerlijk!
Toch kan ik ook genieten van rust. Meer zelfs: ik heb het regelmatig echt nodig. Daar moet je tijd voor maken, maar soms niet eens zoveel als je denkt.

We can measure, we can test it,
We can halt it or arrest it.
We can gather it and weigh it,
We can coat it, we can spray it.
We examine and dissect it,
We cathodically protect it
We can pick it up and drop it.
But heaven knows we'll never stop it!
So here's to rust, no doubt about it,
Most of us would starve without it.
Stopped off at a historical site called Britannia Mines on the way back to Vancouver from Whistler Mountain. The weather cooperated and the late afternoon sunshine brought out the redness in the various rusted machinery on the site. My only regret was I had my Panasonic FZ1000 with me instead of my Canon 5D MK II kit.
big huge conduit looking stuff in a metal yard. i have absolutely no idea what it is or why someone would only want to anodize half of something...
I couldn't figure out what it was. Old wood I think, large 1.5 foot x 1.5 foot kind of lumber making a 4 foot x 5 foot (ish) platform that was about 3 feet tall. On top there was the steel sheet bolted to the wood. One on each side. On each corner there was a steel loop bolted to the steel and one ring of a chain in the loop. Except for one loop that was broken. On the beach, the ocean in the background.
Anyway. I liked the color of the rust with the soft evening light.
It was a great day to be out ...cool but not bad. Wind calm.
