Unique shots!

[FlyingPhotog]

Very Nice Series.

Our photo club did "Rust" as one of our monthly themes last year and these would have fit right in and gotten great reviews as well!

Thank you Cyclop & FlyingPhotog.

I appreciate the vote of confidence FlyingPhotog. I'm currently exploring this hobby to find my niche.

It's alright to post subsequent photos in the same thread right?

Love them! I also have quite a few shots of rusty whatnots from my mom's backyard. I think rust (and old things in general) kicks ass :)

Hi mickee311. Thank you for dropping by. Please let me know via PM (not sure if I can already receive or send one though) where I could take a look at your photos of rusty things.

it is indeed. it was at a small local show i happened to be driving past

[carlomontoya]

I attended a seminar held in a country club and since the place was elegant, I brought my point and shoot (2.5 months before I had a DSLR) and took these photos-

@mods: I'm sorry I didn't read the rules carefully. I thought it said 8 photos per post but after re-reading it, it says 8 per thread. I posted 16 photos here. Gomenasai.

somethign about that third lock picture that I like...

[carlomontoya]

Thank you joshkho. Er, are you a Filipino? Your name sounds like our "Diyos ko" or "Oh my God!" or it could just be a coincidence :) I hope you can tell me what you like about the third lock photo so I can shoot more of the same in the future.

[joshkho]

I'm filchi.
last name is kho =)
I think it's the texture of the scratches that I like and the sharpness
