2 day workshop with Alice exploring using rust in textile art

Clarens, South Africa

A rusted bicycle rests against a wall, with a pot plant in its basket.

On the jetty at Leigh-on-Sea.

The cabin of this flatbed truck has been exposed to the elements for probably half a century, or more. It has now taken on a deep rust-coloured sheen, with most of the original paint now long gone. I'm guessing that it was originally made sometime between 1930 – '50. This is one of the pieces of farming machinery left at the former Ravensborne Railway Station in Western Australia. The station was closed in 1925.

There are three images of this truck in my photostream.

Detail from rusted biscuit tin dad dug up!

I stumbled upon a whole mess of what appeared to be old, rusted air ducts. At first I didn't give this find much thought. But I stuck around and came up with this shot. It is the corner of one of the air ducts framing the other rusted piece of duct behind it.

Garnet is a ghost town near Butte, Montana and these are some rusted can preserved from it's boom town days.

To get to this ghost town I drove up this narrow dirt road on a steep hill for about a hour without any real knowledge that this ghost town actually existed.

This is on Sandy Lane in Brookfield Connecticut. I noticed it the other day while out on a walk and wondered what it was. I peaked in the window and it looks like it is mostly storage now but may have been some sort of machine shop.

I do not suppose it will be there much longer. It is very close to Federal Road and the area is turning into little strip malls and box stores.

I know it's not wildly original, but I liked the rust on this incinerator on one of the plots at our allotment site

"His iron coat all overgrown with rust, Was underneath envelope' d with gold, Whose glistering gloss darkened with filthy dust, Well yet appeare' d, to have been of old A work of rich entail, and curious mold, Woven with antics and wild imagery."
