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'.
I photographed this smashed VW bug on my very first visit to Bombay Beach, probably about 1988. In the span of less than three years it rusted into complete non-existence.
The 'Riverside' development at Canary Wharf, London stalled a couple of years ago, presumably due to the recession, having had the foundations and other preparatory works completed. The enormous site is now filling up with rainwater and the concrete reinforcements are rusting away gradually. Will they need to be dug out and replaced when work resumes, I wonder? A huge task if so!
Close up, the old crane rails of Tynemouth Pier look like Grand Canyon-esque landscapes. Love the ever-changing detail in these spots.
Rust, close up. Taken in the abandoned mining town "Pyramiden" on Svalbard.

wear this tunic all year long - in warmer months it's great as a dress or top and in colder months it looks cute paired with leggings and a sweater!
it's super comfy - made with a brand new (and laundered) t-shirt jersey pillowcase. the crocheted edging was done with soft (not scratchy) acrylic yarn.
this tunic is made from a rust colored pillowcase and has a multi-color edging that includes oranges, browns & yellows.
one size fits most. measured flat, it's about 19" across and 31" lengthwise from the shoulder to the bottom of the crocheted edge.
machine wash, air dry.
The remains of the species I posted recently that is in the comment below. The remains after a couple of weeks must have a name but we could call them stumps as a place holder. I notice the rust colored discoloration on the leaf of the host plant.
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.
