A study in the beauty of decay. These photos of rust were taken on a day I learned that a family member had been diagnosed with cancer. I'm sure I departed from my usual practice of photographing beautiful landscapes in an effort to remind myself that you can find beauty even in decay if you look deeply enough. The subject is rusted corrugated aluminum sheets.
These lilies (along with the rusty fence) belong to my neighbor. When they blossom, it's like the entire fencerow has gone up in flames.
It's been kind of rainy today, so I decided to take my Thursday walk (this would be the Utata Thursday Walk) close to home (read: in my yard) so that if it started to pour, I wouldn't be too far away. Also, me + rain + photography don't mix too well... snapping shots of a rainstorm last summer was how I fried my last camera.
Seems an lot of it on our Alexanders this spring. A lot more than usual, the Romans found not be eating it for their veggies in this condition!

2006 December 27 - Rust along the left back corner of the Nissan Sentra's trunk hood. Water would seep in and drip into the trunk, yuck. No "before" pic available. I tried aluminum tape but it curled and water stayed underneath it. Then I tried spray painting the rusted areas with Rust-o-leum Hammered bronze paint. Works great so far! If it starts leaking again, I'll try caulking around the rubber seal edge.
The bridge near Beverly Beach is in dangerously eroded condition, and explanatory signs nearby described the extreme salt water spray conditions faced by equipment left there. This chain link fence did a beautiful job of visually explaining the dangers.
BTW, tetanus is not caused by rust itself, but bacteria often contained in fecal matter. The reason it is associated with rust is that it often collects on nails that pop up in barns where bovine fecal matter is present.
Just thought you'd like to know. It was one of those things I was always wondering myself.
I drive or walk past this delightful old relic nearly every day, and each time I think "one of these days I need to take a picture of that before it disappears..." Today was the day!
Interesting place as a shoot…
Camp 18, Hy-way 26, 60Miles E of Portland.
I stopped there 6 years ago, loved shooting the Massive rusted old collection of bygone Logging equipment. So many huge pieces there, old Tractors, steam shovels, all kinds of crazy odd contraptions. Gigantic pieces of rusting machinery, and old train cars too. A babbling brook, "Humbug Creek" there too which I did not see. Setting is country/rural with some trees.
I hear the food is good too, and served in true Paul Bunnyan style portions!

This old boat has been at our summer camp for a long time. The last time it was used as a pontoon boat (i.e. party barge), one of the pontoons took in water and sank. Not all the way, but, there were people swimming.
