HEADING DOWN HWY 319 NEAR Medart, Florida, there is a collection of old Ford trucks.
Rusty and overgrown with vines and grass, they are lined up neatly on the right side of the road. Anyone who knows their Fords will notice that they’re even lined up in chronological order, dating from the early 1900’s to the mid-70’s. The trucks are an unusual worse-for-wear site on the scenic byway, but their apocalyptic charm attracts more photographers than any of the natural scenery. Where did they come from?
Placed here by Pat Harvey, they had all been used on the nearby Harvey family farm. They aren’t deserted—Pat loves the old buckets of rust, and has memories to share about each and every one. Originally owned by Pat’s dad and used for parts, the trucks and the land they’re on now belong to Pat, who lined them up by year just to see what they looked like in the correct order.
Torn between junk and art, the trucks are in questionable standing. While Pat enjoys sharing his beloved vehicles, vandals do occasionally have their way with them, and the city has an ordinance regarding too many junked cars in one place—even photogenic, neatly ordered ones. So far these issues haven’t been pressing enough for Pat Harvey to take any sort of action to remove them. The community and photographers enjoy their rugged charm and appreciate the automotive display that’s not quite a collection, and not quite a wreck.
Macro Mondays theme 'Rust'.
A small section of a car brake disc. Always amazes me how quickly rust will appear on the face of a disc. After a heavy rain this afternoon, these rust spots developed within two hours
I found this in a giant abandoned steel factory in Völklingen, Germany. Parts of this can be visited.

Yet another impressive sculpture I stumbled across in Dinan , Brittany a few years ago. As usual I did not make a note of the artist.
I wasn’t planning on falling in love today—but then I spotted this rust bucket with charm for days and a windshield that’s seen more sunsets than I have awkward crushes...

Within living memory this area was full of the rust that comes with neglect, and it seems that now the area has smartened up and become desirable so has the rust...
Rusting farm sheds in the countryside add to the atmosphere of this photo along with the moody sky, Hillview, Queensland, Australia.
A transition to something a bit different from a Show 'n' Shine. No idea as to what model this old timer is, but it does not matter, as there is not enough showing to appreciate the actual car. No shine to this set of wheels, but most will know how much I like the look of rust and of shapes.
Will likely take two clicks to get to full view, but worth it if you like texture.
In de haven van Helgoland zijn prachtige structuren door roest op de havenpalen door getijdewisselingen en metalen ontstaan.
In the port vanHelgoland its magnificent structures rust harbor piles caused by tidal fluctuations and metals.
