Tanked...

Rusting corrugated tank, corrugated iron shed, weathered timber, angles, lines….... texture paradise!!
I found this while passing through an odd little NSW country town which goes by the name of “Legume”. I’m not sure why it’s named so….. there wasn’t a legume in sight.

[Thanks to Ghostbones for the great texture overlay]

    I love corrugated iron too….. I’d actually love to live in a corrugated house…... It’s got such character.

    Rosemary, I sat here watching this one for a while. I cannot say what thoughts were in my head when i saw this but it mesmerized me for a very good reason. For me it has sadness and happiness all in one. Please dont think of me as silly when i say this touched me !

  • Rosemary Scott replied

    I’d never think you silly Ric, I love that things touch you deeply.
    This one actually moves me too, because it carries such strong reminders of my childhood….. you can’t grow up in the Australian bush without rusty corrugated tanks & sheds!
