"Rotting Away'....II

From my new series “Rotting Away”
t amazes me that this old iron still lingers on. I captured this beauty behind a body shop. Will it live again? Only rust and time will tell…

Processed as a HDR it would make a beautiful card or picture to hang on any wall.

Best viewed at full size!
