The theme of the week at Aberystwyth Camera Club.

I took away the background and the context, so now it has become very abstract...

Rust is famous for his nesting Storks. Nearly every house has his own nest on the roof or chimney.

Took this on my iPhone, No apps used just plain old Camera App and some Aperture treatment!

I did a mini workshop on rust printing today. I'm super excited about it! The rust metal actually goes into the fabric. It's not a stain, it's the actual metal in the fabric!

The old rusting tank in the next picture, this time photographed in an intimate way.

Old broken window sparkles in the sunlight on this old rusted truck.

Que bonitos son y que pena dan cuando los ves así de maltratados.

As fascinated as I am by the many abandoned cabins and trailers that sit decomposing in the Southern California desert, I'm just as intrigued by the possessions that have been left behind with them. Pictured here, a rusty old bedspring I stumbled upon in the yard of a deserted jackrabbit homestead in Wonder Valley, CA.

I crocheted the doily years ago, rusted it then cut it up to use as a wrap for this book cover.
