Well, thanks, Tamera! I beg to differ, but I appreciate the compliment! I was fortunate to find it already set against that yellow background.

Much appreciated, Sharon! I wouldn't say I live close to it... was about a 110 mile drive! The latest 3 images in my gallery are all from that trip to Strasburg, visiting the Strasburg Railroad, and the Pennsylvania Railroad Museum directly across the street. Very handy place for train lovers!

;) Thanks, Jane... I've seen quite a few really cool rusty images here; thought I'd keep an eye out for an opportunity. (No pun intended!)

Thanks so much, folks! I was pleasantly surprised to get a shallower-than-expected DOF on this... something my camera doesn't often excel at!

Thanks, Stan! (Unfortunately, there is no "next stage" for this one---this was acutally an August Finalist. I think perhaps you and Revonda either hit the wrong link to view Sept. Finalists, or, maybe visited my gallery, and thought this was a Sept, in my first row of Finalists?)

Love this beautiful depiction of "rust" - something not usually considered to be "pretty." It is the truly gifted photographer who can transform something mundane or even unsightly into something remarkably beautiful. You are that someone! Lynn

Lynn, thank you very much for your generous words! The derelict trains had so much fascinating detail, when you got up close... the colors of rust, worn paint, bare metal... just scream out for macro images!
