I'm still trying to find that groove where rust meets Rust Junkie standards. So here's another one.

    Not only excellent Rust Junkie stuff but a Rust Monster, too!

    It could be pushed a bit further in the Sat department and a load of Clarity would help, as well.

    Well done.

    You're definitely on the right track. It certainly meets the preferred format by being an abstract. As to how far you want to take the processing....well, that's up to you. There's no rule that says you have to sit at the head table where the most extreme of our bunch hangs out. Some of the JUNKIES go for a more modest approach, which is fine. Decide where your level of comfort is and concentrate your efforts there.

    I do like this shot.

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

    Many thanks
    Many thanks and much appreciation to you all for your help and guidance with this really fun project. I've always enjoyed rust and old stuff, probably because I'm old and getting rusty, and I really like pushing photos to something beyond what is regularly accepted by so many of the purest. I don't much care for the rules but rather enjoy taking things the other way. It's nice to know there are others out there doing the same thing. RUST JUNKIES UNITE! Thanks again.
