Badly rusted chain sits on lava rocks near Mōkōlea (Mokolea) Point with azure Pacific Ocean and Kāhili (Kahili) Beach in the background.
Though I cant say I like rust, I have some kind of fascination for it. It can form such an interesting 'sculptures' and patterns.
Okay, these are probably a series for a very small audience. This set of four was shot on a barrier island off the Virginia coast. the ship was rusted out and pulled up on a mud flat. The images look better enlarged.

We went to the Witterings Big Dip but my favourite photo was of this rusty old water outlet pipe! I love the colours and textures.
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.

So after finally arriving in Rust late that night I found out that the place I booked was some sort of guest house owned by a German couple who did not speak a word of English between them both, but thankfully were very friendly and patient. However the room was also very cold but the comforter on the bed was incredibly insulating so that made up for it, so I was really ready at this point for a nights sleep before starting my first day at Europa Park.

Old picture...my friend Mckee aka Rusted Fate with his (then) new tattoo. I showed him this design, he loved it, and the rest is history.
I'd found a bit of rust underneath recently, on the ends of the sills, although thankfully it was just surface rust. This is partly what prompted me to get the treatment done. There was no other corrosion of note underneath and hopefully it'll stay that way for a good while now. The proprietor described it as 'solid' which will do me!

Battery Lewis was built in 1942 to compliment an identical battery built at New Yorks Fort Tilden. Battery Lewis housed two 16-inch naval guns, capable of firing 16-inch projectiles. Never fired in an attack, Battery Lewis only let its two guns fire once. After many days of public warning and multiple announcements the guns were fired as a test. Many houses in the surrounding area had windows shattered and reports state that the firing of the guns could be heard in nearby Staten Island, New York. After the firing the guns would remain silent for seven more years until Battery Lewis was declared surplus and following that the removing of the guns. Sitting on the highest point on the East Coast from Southern Maine to the tip of Florida the Atlantic Highlands was a valuable position to defend the New York harbor during WWII.
In World War 2, this base was the site of Battery Issac N. Lewis (Construction Number 116), which consisted of two 16-inch Navy guns, Model MkIIMI on M4 barbette carriages, installed in concrete casemates.
These guns weighed over 128 tons each, were 68 feet long, and could fire a 2,240 lb pound (16-inch diameter) armor-piercing projectile at targets up to 25 miles away. The crewmen worked inside the protection of the concrete casemates and used overhead hoists to load the projectile and the 648 lbs of powder contained within three separate powder bags.
These two guns had an interlocking field-of-fire with the twin 16-inch guns of Fort Tilden that could hit any enemy ship approaching the New York Harbor. These guns had a service life of only 200 rounds each and were only fired during the proof firing and annual service practice. Although German submarines were operating within visual range of this facility, these guns were never fired at an enemy ship. Along with the other fortifications of the New York Harbor, this facility safeguarded the New York Harbor during WWII.
