Very nice, Mary. Simple, but photographically pleasing. I go for #2. thumb clap

I like both of these, though #2 slightly better. I think close-ups of single blocks given the usual 'Rust Junkie' treatment might turn up some good images, too!

I was wondering if someone would want these pushed for the 'rust look'

Must admit I did push it in editing. Went even further then what's posted, but then backed off. I chickened out

Hi Mary, I really like these shots, especially #2. The lighting, texture, and colour is perfect - oh, and the lines

Cheers, Richard.

Hi Richard --

I'm glad you enjoyed the lines in these too

Thank you for taking the time to comment and your kind words

I like the 2nd also. The lighting adds its own pattern to the bricks. Also the two dabs of red paint in the sunlight are eye catchers.

Seems #2 is the pick out of the two photos

I was wondering if anyone would find the red paint a distraction vs a compliment to the photo. Glad to hear it wasn't a distraction.

Thank you for taking the time to comment

I like 2 too! the wrmer tones with that texture is striking.

I'm voting for #2 as well. The two small red spots are perfect to break the symmetry and regularity of the blocks. I think the shot would be much less interesting without them.

Good catch clap!

Thank you Andrea

Some times imperfections can make a photo work while other times people say to clone it out. Glad I didn't clone those out.

What I find interesting is that people are noticing the 2 red drops of paint, but no mention of the brick below it that's sticking out.

I'm not at all an expert of "psychology of viewing", but I bet that's because the sticking brick is close to the center, so it breaks the symmetry in a less strong way...

Not an oddball ... I liked the blues in the first one.
