Found and old rusted bowl on a crumbling wall, thought it was kind of neat.
Comments of any kind welcomed.

Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

Thank you for looking,

Interesting find.
I prefer the first one by far - the angle works much better for me.

thank you all. I am very new to this, so please point out anything that you think could make them better.

In the first one, I want to see a little more of the fence, so a move just slightly to your right would have been good. Otherwise both are great captures -- shallow DoF was a good idea.

first one shows the wall.

cant tell its a wall in the second, and i like the first composition alot better.

if it was me, i would make the narrow white border a bit less powerful, and make the black part of the border a darker gray tone that is found within the picture.

i feel the very high contrast B+W border takes away from the pic's earthtones
