Rusting is an oxidation reaction. The iron reacts with water and oxygen to form hydrated iron(III) oxide, which we see as rust.

Who knows what the original device was but it seems to have been converted to a cart to haul irrigation pipe around the property. It stands out by the bails of piled hay. Days of duty may be bygone. The field beyond don't look too stinkin' good neither. I was told the field needs some serious work. The first crop was usually to grow alfalfa to invest it with nitrogen. The first farm crop ought to be growing champeen soil. It's a can of cake after that. Everything goes into a chipper-shredder, including cottonseed meal, alfalfa, shredded tree limbs, autumn leaves, grass clippings and kitchen leftovers. Pretty soon the soil is primo and will grow anything.
The series slipped over to the horse-drawn implements, as long as I have a long way to go on the genealogy, scanning, retouching and documenting journey that has cost me a couple of months so far, sheesh. My eclipse shots are still languishing on my disc. I suppose that if McIntosh worked his soil, he probably set a field to grass hay or alfalfa that could be baled or stored in the silo for winter feed for his dairy cattle.
The Ag Museum is still open for weekends, including Fridays for a while into fall. It's probably time for a leisurely stroll down to Mac Lake. I loaded up with autumn captures this year in general and accessed the only snow Saturday last winter. As always, it's a great spot for exercise and access to Mac Lake. There is always something more at McIntosh but I won't search today. I apparently can't find everything in a single pass. I like the natural patina of the rusting tones as they were. There is great diversity in those tones.
It's a Chevrolet, but don't know the year.
Can anyone make out the sign on it?
Still has the plates, but can't determine the year or state.

These cable clamps obviously helped with some task at one time but are merely rusting away now. I find it interesting, though, that the stainless steel has held up so well over the years.
The angle on these clamps was very awkward for me. I had to hold my poor old camera in the general direction of the clamps and snap a shot with autofocus and hope for the best. I know that I wasn't going to go get a ladder to get up to the 3m+ level of a rusty old set of clamps!

"In the wake of the ship's passing, his instruction not to consume freshly fallen rust, yet again, went unheeded. Dusk was fast approaching and he didn't have time go over the reasons for a fourth time.
It wasn't so much his horse's deafness that was the problem either - she neither required, nor wanted, aural ability. She was basically just being her usual recalcitrant self".

Feb. 16, 2025: Photography in Los Alamos, California, emphasizing rust. The community of about 900 is located in the Santa Ynez Valley.
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.
