From the side of an Army ambulance built circa 1947 and probably never painted more than once. Sitting out in the New Mexico sun and scouring dust-winds can do some wild things to paint and metal. The dark strip along the top is the shadow of the gutter-like ridge at the edge of the truck's roof.
The original colors would have been a red cross within a white square and everything else army green. I honestly don't know why there's white within the cross or which reds are paint, which rust, and which rust stain (but no flakes). It's weird.
I have of course manipulated the image for effect, but have done no painting. What you see is what was there - sorta'.
Just as rust never sleeps but imperceptibly eats away at bare metal, time, the energy of destruction, marches on regardless of our dreams and ambitions. Naturally, we all want the world to be a nice place, full of good feelings and experiences that “stand the test of time.” But although we may be choose to forget about time, as the most powerful natural force, not only does it steal our peak moments, but it also does away with us, their experiencer. About time, Krishna says,
“Time I am, the great destroyer of the worlds.”
The wise perceive the effect of time through the eyes of genuine knowledge, and save time for getting beyond the rust of material existence, the true purpose of yoga and meditation.

Ik heb geprobeerd een deel van mezelf vast te leggen, dat niet iedereen kent: Ritzo in rust.
Foto: gemaakt liggend op bed met mijn statief over me heen.
This picture is all about perspective, shadow, and shape. I upped the saturation to make the picture a bit more bold, then I burned the shadows to give them more depth. This image was strong in its original form, and the minimal editing that I did made a difference to make this an even stronger image.
The types of rust were as varied as the cars. I'd never really thought about rust patterns being all that different. Here they were like varied types of fungi.
21st November: RIP - Rust in Peace
I knew I had a chance to grab a shot before the rains came, but inspiration was not with me today, until I noticed a big pile of rusting boat chains near the lifeboat station. I explained to an old timer nearby I was not mad (maybe he wasn't convinced), just taking shots for my project. He explained that these chains would end up as weights at the bottom of the sea, RIP!
Curves, levels adjustments in Photoshop and Color Stylizer used to give it the rusty contrast.
