They were all just so decayed and rusted out. It was awesome to see them, and feel them, and smell them. MMnnn rusty
Last December I was standing on the far end of a long train platform I rarely use as the afternoon sunlight raked across old steel plates that had been placed there many years ago, probably as a "temporary" repair. It was chilly and a stiff breeze would blow past every now and then as I looked out across the rails waiting for the train to pull in. That afternoon sun felt good on my face, even in its end of year weakened state, and it gave me another gift - it brought those steel plates, and their layers of rust, to life.
Way back in 1979 Neil Young released an incredible album titled, "Rust Never Sleeps" and I found this bit about the meaning of that title on thrasherswheat.org and connected with it...
"Some consider the term to be a metaphor for artistic vitality. In other words, by staying the same, one is vulnerable to the corrosive effects of aging and obsolescence. By moving forward and innovating, one can try and stay ahead of the relentless onslaught of time, remain vital and "rust free.'"

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.
Don't worry, Tacoma, things will get better.
I drove down to Tacoma to clean up my grandparents' graves (and my great-grandparents' and my great-great-grandparents' and assorted great-grand uncles' and aunts'). Afterward, I walked around the cemetery with two film cameras and shot several rolls. As I was starting to head out of town, I saw the brightest rainbow I've ever seen, a double, arching over the waterfront and the dome. I couldn't get to an unobstructed vantage point before it began to fade, but I got this.
This is just down the road from my house and I've been wanting to photography it for the last few years. The rust and texture is JUST amazing---note how he has a rust belt?
