    Ooooo!!! A nice specimen for us rust junkies! Saturate, saturate men, and lots of sharpening will make your shots come alive! rolleyes1.gif #3 is a winner for me. thumb.gif

    Saturate even more? I'll give it a shot... Funny 3 seems to me to be chopped off a bit.

    Thanks for the comments!

    Well... Since you are following my every wish mwink.gif

    Clone out the white part in the upper left of #3

    And then #4... Hmmm.. I like it, but maybe dodge and burn a little? It's just not contrasty enough to fit with the rest of the series. ne_nau.gif

    Juano, I hope you don't mind if I play a little bit with your image to show you what I meant. Something like this...

    Hey Juano,

    I like your original set of pics....they show real promise. But Jiro is showing you the path to membership in the Rust Junkies. When it comes to rust, there are no boundaries. PUMP IT UP AND LET IT FLY.

    Thanks guys! I can see that you aren't shy about saturating stuff. In my view Jiro's rework of the first one is a bit overdone but I like the second one very much.

    I think you're right, Don. There's more fish to fry in that pan. CRANK IT UP AND GET OUT OF THE WAY!!:D
