As described, this lens took a plunge in a French river. Just 1 or 2 seconds in the water was of course enough to ruin it. After 20+ years of storage in the basement, I undertook to disassemble it. One of the most magnificent parts was this rusted (but still working !!) diaphragm.

The weathered steps at Commissioners’ Wharf lead to the tranquil waters of the harbour.

I still love this big ole hunka junk.

Parts of the SS Ethie are scattered up and down the beach in Gros Morne National Park.

I recently became aware of how beautiful rust can be. I'm emulating someone.

365 Days in Color, rust and/or black No. 17

Went out via Cooroy this morning to photograph some rusty farm equipment. After that I saw this cute Kelpie outside the Noosa Library in Wallace Park, Queensland.

 

She looks better than the farm equipment :-) A little sad, having to wait outside on her own.

 

The Kelpie is an Australian sheep dog successful at mustering and droving with little or no command guidance. They are medium-sized dogs and come in a variety of colours. Kelpies have been exported throughout the world and are used to muster livestock, primarily sheep, cattle and goats.

 

Robert Kaleski published the first standard for the Kelpie in 1904.

 

19/30 Rust November, 365 Colours.

Summer, morning walk.

Scraping the bottom of the barrel at the local convenience store. I love the color rust. I’m surprised at how little of it I have at home.

The beauty of old buildings is that "ugly" can take on a beautiful meaning - textures, shapes and colours abound.

Some sink, I liked how the photo came out.

This is a cover over a drainage hole of some kind. Watch where you step.

Mon. the 21st and Morning walkabout to Tanner Springs.

Rust can be so amazing sometimes. This had amazing colors from being wet in the rain!

Rust can be destructive, but can also be colourful and artistic as seen in this photo taken from Mahe Seychelles

This was perhaps the best deal I saw. This 1965 Mustang was a nice blue on blue, 289 , native NC car. I looked underneath and it is clean and rust free. All this for $8900. Imagine if it was a convertible or 2+2???

These particular photos are of a rusted wall off to the side at Konpira-san in Japan. The wall was part of a newer built teaching/living part of the temple to house monks.

 

tiny, detailed, repeating patterns... spotted in particular get my creative juices flowing

With inspirational credit to Mandy, not for the layout of this particular shot necessarily, but for how impressively she uses Black and White to make a photo more dramatic.

She is also the inspiration for me writing so much in tags that I was invited to tag whores by Charlotte. Who is also a whiz with Black and white.

2000 Toyota Rav4. Just an example of every day challenges as a mechanic in the rust belt.Step 1: use chipping hammer to knock off rust. step 2: drill out remains of cotter pin. step 3: pound socket 3 sizes smaller than original nut onto rusted nut and hope it comes off. step 4: if all else fails use cutting torch to cut nut/stud off. step 5: prepare speech to customer for the increased cost of repairs.

My first entry in the April Photo Challenge. Trevor alternates the challenges, so there won't be another one until June, so get in on the action while the gettin's good. This month's theme is "entropy."

 

Anyway, my first photo is a rusted pole, shot with my 100mm macro lens, this morning. It's at the intersection of 28th St and Army Navy Drive in Arlington, and holds the bus schedule for Route 22B. For you technical folk, I added a small amount of sharpening and bumped the saturation a bit. I kept my XTi on continuous shooting and AI Servo for focusing, and shot 4 frames to make sure I could get one in focus.
