Boxcar


 
BetterPhoto.com Photo Contest Finalist   Boxcar
Boxcar
This is actually a close up of a section of an abandoned boxcar that I found two days ago.
I fell in love with the Color, texture, shapes and lines of the various details it flaunted.
I have a series of abstract/texture type images from this particular find
which I will share a handful of over the next couple of months.
Thanks for looking
Natural light :)

  Great find, Jennifer! Amazing what you managed to create with it! Was this taken in natural light? Rust does not always look THIS good!
