    Boy, I see an absolute treasure trove of opportunity here. You've got a mother load vein of rust that could be mined for years.

    I like the shots you have here but they only scratch the surface. Get close to your subject....zero in on certain elements of interest. Isolate patches of particular appeal. More than anything else, though, you have to give rust the royal treatment. Get real aggressive with your PP program. Bump up the saturation, turn loose the sharpening, let the adjustment sliders fly in every direction.....give rust the chance to really dance for you.

    All those suggestions are meant, of course, for someone that's a true RUST JUNKIE at heart. Good luck and thanks for sharing.

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    You are right Tom.

    I have a lot to learn, and with your advice, would be easier<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>

    lol3.gif It's an American idiomatic expression. In proper Spanish, you could say "el óxido es lo mejor;" but in Madrid slang I think "el óxido es la caña" would be closer.
