As you know Kort, I am a lover of textures and this one has me very interested. However, i feel it would have benifited from a low flash fill setting to bring out more of the detail and rich textures. Never the less, I like the new direction you are taking. Thank you for sharing.

Grapho and Glypho were plowing a rice patty together in Japan. Grapho wanted to know the dual for war. Glypho laughed and said"You Crassicar Schorals all arike!" Ah a bit rustyWas ist IE for electric eel? Or is that putting the cart before the horse, hehe.

I am going to out on a limb - exceptionally, I do not think I agree with Egmont (although I see what he means) - I like the contrast created by the shadow

• thanks Charles. I agree with your assesment that it needed that extra contrast to work. I played with the midrange settings a bit and making them lighter caused it to lose some visual impact. *

I love the composition, and the focus on the shapes/forms. Wish it weren't in the shadow (Don't you have a control Sun dial?) The quote is one of the most fascinating I have read in a while! Keep'm coming Kort!!

Personally I like the shadow ~ and textures of course rock.

wow, what a super super work!!!! excellently done!!! :)

great series of rust in different forms and colours. nicely done:)

Impressive shot, with so much little details of texture, of colors. A lovely composition and an original serie.

Good texture tone and light here :)

Without flash though able by computer technology to show at least some more details, you did well, Kort! Gorgeous work, (greyish) black with joyful rust-colors! :)

I would love to use the term "gorgeous" here...but to be honest...theres nothing gorgeous about rust and old paint is there? I do however find it to look rather COOOOOOL and fascinating!!!! And i think your capture is absolutely flawless. Excellent light and detail. MTFG was his nickname wasnt it? Or something like that at least. Hed be mighty proud of you for this one!!! GO MAS GO!!!!! Go Andreas Go back to work...sigh.....hope you have a great day at least. #:O)
