For lovers of Rusty Old Things

I think this may be an old water tower for either the railway or the farmer.
To be honest I have no idea but thought that these shots may appeal to those lovers of rusty old things.

C&C always appreciated.

    Ah, Peter, now you're starting to get with the program that us " Rust Junkies " love to see. Go ahead, though, and pump up the saturation even a little more if you really want to put a couple of us in orbit. Nice work.

    Thanks Tom. I did get chance to have a look at the saturation on a couple of these and will add them when I have time.

    Cheers Don. My only problem is I find myself walking into things because I'm looking around for so many things - rust, street shots, doors.

    Ok so taking Tom's advice here are some with the sat turned up a little.
    Are these better or worse? Or could the sat go further?

    That's the idea. I do mine in Lightroom. Clarity 100% and strong contrast curve. ON ecan do the same in ACR!

    Oh yea, Peter. Magnificent. That first one has me salivating.
    You're an official Junkie now.
