    Don!!! Don!!! You're slipping a little. :D # 1 is too cluttered with other elements surrounding the pipe. #2 is pretty darn good....more like What I've come to expect from you thumb.gif. #'s 3 and 4 are lacking....there's way too much meat left on those bones. Crank it up.

    Great heaping helping of rust there Don. It's got me itching to process some "rusty" images I have and get them posted. I love the direction the rust junkies have taken of late.

    #4 would make a nice texture layer.
    become my fan:

    I like #2 but find the background distracting. #3 would be my favorite is it had a greater depth of field to enhance the texture across the frame.

    Good rust though! :D

    Yea for the second set--like them all! I agree on #4 for a texture layer--it would make some Photoshop artists happy.
