Man, I had a time trying to come up with a theme. 
So many ways to go.
I was bent on High Key B&W but decided against it. Maybe next time.
For this round I decided to go with favorite subject of mine.
" Rusty Old Things"
This is wide open for your interpretation. I hope you have fun with this theme!
So bring out your shots and share.
This challenge will run from Monday, September 29th thru Sunday, October 12th.
Closing at (Midnight) Eastern Standard Time USA.
I'll post the winner in a new thread titled: >MINI CHALLENGE #12 Winner<
~~~~~
*GENERAL RULES*
1. Have fun sharing and seeing what others share!
2. The host supplies a topic and you post 1-3 images. The host judges the winners (1st, 2nd and 3rd) and is not eligible to enter.
The 1st place winner then chooses the next topic, judges the winner and passes on the baton to the new champion.
3. Any photo you’ve taken is eligible, regardless of when taken or camera used.
4. Any amount of post-processing is allowed. However, it is helpful if you list your camera and lens along with your photo.
You may comment on other contestant's images. If you want someone to leave you some criticism, put an asterisk (*) next to the title of the image.
Guidelines:
1. Enter 1-3 photos and put them in a single post.
2. Either embed your image in the thread or, if you must, supply a link to it. Keep in mind, however, most people don't want to click to open photos hosted elsewhere (i.e. on your website).
3. Also try and resize your photos prior to posting so they're sized appropriately for viewing without having to scroll (~800 pixels on the longest side works best.)
* The winner has up to three days (72 hours) to begin a new mini-challenge, or the honor goes to the #2 finisher and so forth.
4. Give each image you enter a title.
5. Enjoy discussion with members about their images, dont let this just be an entry thread!
6. Dont be hesitant, share'em and enter!

I have quite a few of this type of image. The first was shot a couple years ago with the Tamron 28-75. The others are recently captured while shooting my entry for DSS8 with the Canon 17-55F2.8IS. All with the XTi.

"American Pie"

Not sure what happened for you. There is a subtle difference in the
page source code for those photo links.
Try editing your post and re insert
the photo links the same way you did the first image once again.
Check preview post before submitting reply.
I tried putting your photos in this note from your web links and the
photos are there. But since I am not a moderator I can not change your
post.
Give it a shot. & Good luck with it.

All taken using a Canon 24-70. #1 used a 5D, #2 & #3 used a 20D. Hope I got all this correctly entered. Looks like a fun thread. Great photos so far. I loves me some old rusty things.
Edit: Can't think and type at the same time and added those * things.

Judging the images. Gads!!! I do that? What was I thinking. :bash
Lots of really nice work coming in as mentioned. Just what I was hoping for.
Knew it was out there and very glad we get to see some of that work in this challenge and other places.
I like both versions. The green was a retro cross process type treatment....the one here is more in line to mimic the lomographic film camera.
