Sometimes train chases lead to some very interesting 'other' finds. Given other indications in the immediate area, this section of rail was likely used as part of the road crossing and was subsequently replaced by better and heavier rail. Rusted well with a chunk missing. Part of the Atlantic and Yadkin, now Atlantic and Western
I guess an old rusty car is like a cancer victim. Unattended the body is OK but the rust keeps eating it away until it is no longer its former self and not able able to hit the road and get out and enjoy life again.Then one day somebody says "what a waste...that can be restored, all you gotta do is kill the rust and start over again"
Cut to the chase.....my Big C is in remission, hopefully a stem cell transplant will be the restoration....and the road never looked so good again.
thanks everybody for listening and CARING....merc

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.

My most interesting shots are here
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!
A 1932 Chevrolet Confederate pick-up truck sits rusting on its hubs.
Seen at Becker Roofing near Knoxville, Iowa. Thanks to Lloyd Becker for giving Randy and I a Sunday morning tour of his collection.
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! :)

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.

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.
