I love macro abstract work of rejected and neglected items in our society, especially rusty old dumpsters (skips) around the back of buildings, battered boats up on dry dock, rotting wood, bark of trees, and so on. Im fascinated by the color and texture that appears with a macro lens. I do almost no post-processing after taking the shot.

    Yes, definitely larger mode (funny, I didn’t know about using this feature). I never knew that the tiles looked like this….I love the “peacock” kind of geometry/pattern! and it pops framed in the bright white mat – good work M!

    thanks. Yes, the tiles are quite fascinating. I shot it the next day in the evening as the sun was going down but it made the tiles look a horrible mud brown!
