I often think to myself that this is how old people are, they age and they start to get more fragile and frail but refuse to break, till at some point they give up. The they start to decay till there is nothing left and many of them seem to loose the will to live...

Sorry about this dark note. Just my track of mind at the moment.

in fact, I think it grows while we are sleeping ... the interior of a plug on the front of a travel trailer, no wonder the lights didn't work properly ... one of my little projects from work ...

Rusted Grating by Derek Symmers

The grating to the West Wemyss Chapel Gardens was built in the late 16th century. Now used as the Wemyss Family private burial plot.

It looks like these could be the original metal bars used when the outside wall was built.

The gratings are well rusted and in some of the other arches are almost missing altogether.

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.

Don't Shoot! by MGdeABQ

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'.
