It's time for greatness -- not for greed. It's a time for idealism -- not ideology. It is a time not just for compassionate words, but compassionate action. --Marian Wright Edelman
On the road out of Collinsville to the Montezuma Slough you can see the remains of several old buildings. This one has rusted to amazing colors of orange and warm browns.
Collinsville, Montezuma Hills, Solano County, Northern California.
This old grain elevator sits near the intersection of IL. routes 34 and 40 between Buda and Manlius,IL.I remember driving by this all my life,my dad bought some feed from this place probably 30 years ago.Things were much simpler then which can be witnessed by its modern counterpart,built just a short distance away along the highway.This has so much more character though!
During my drive through some back roads of Iowa, I came across a collection of rusted farm equipment.
It was interesting to walk among them.

Left over from a set of hay mow pulleys I photographed several years ago. I took another shot at it because I love the casting detail as well as the rusty texture. This is another 50mm prime lens exercise. It provides a great quality shot. The EF Myers Company was known for its efficient water pumps but they also manufactured other products for agriculture. www.farmcollector.com/equipment/history-f-e-myers-and-bro/
I have found my personal rust paradise, only about 45 min from me. acres of old cars and trucks untouched for decades. It was a scrap yard years ago, but even the wrecks are awesome. I was overwhelmed walking the place, it would take a solid month just to see it all. much less Photograph. so...anytime I want to shoot old cars. I got that covered.
Goldfield Ghost Town, Apache Junction, Pinal County, AZ Jul 2, 2011 — I hand-held multiple exposures then converted five images to tiffs using Lightroom. I used Photomatrix to tone-map the HDR image. I spruced-up the image using the Topaz plug-ins DeNoise, Detail, and Simplify, and touched-up the image using Photoshop.

Last weekend, Ken & I bought a beautiful little metal gazebo- rusted and perfect for SO many of my tiny spots here- it's not big at all - 6 ft. wide. But here it sits, still on the truck! Not as easy as I thought, with only two of us to manage getting it off there! The leg columns are lying down in the bottom of the truck bed. :)
This is not "new" new, but new to me! I hope that counts! :)
