Rusting Rivet

Rusting Rivet

Just after finishing taking pictures of the Kina, I was stumbling back over the rocks and came across a bright Rusty piece of ….... well something!

Sun was setting, bright amazing colours were being shone back at me and thought – yeah!

personally I like this image for it’s pin sharp detail and the juxtaposition between the round bolt and the straight edge especially with the blues on top.

it was probably a well rusted iron girder but bent and rusted beyond recognition by the sea and rocks…

    lol! Mystery object! Whatever it is, you’ve captured the detail really nicely, and I love the composition too :) There’s a Textures and Materials group you might be interested in!

    I believe that the technical term for it is “thingamajiggy”, which of course is used to keep whtasamacallits together (duh!) ;-)

    Neat abstract!

    Dean it will end up Featured in the group also if you can just remove it from the group and then re-submit it straight away – this puts it at the front of the group’s images so I can find it without having to plough through masses of pages of work!!! Bubblemail me if you are able to do this so I know …
