I didn't know I stumbled upon a haven for rust junkies. :barb I hope this makes a nice fix. Seen in a garden just around the corner from my home.

    Nice starting point there, Jim. Looks like you found out where all the Rustaholics hang out here at Dgrin. To be competitive in Rust Junkie-ville, there are some guidelines to follow. Close-ups are almost a must. And then use Photoshop or another image mangler to up the sharpness into the too-high area, and then move the saturation slider to about 300x, or somesuch. deal.gif

    Rust is all around us. Don't need any meetings. Sharing is caring.

    It's great to have you join us, Jim. I'm particularly pleased to have another RUST JUNKIE to swell our little hardcore group. We may be a bit more extreme than you're used to; we honor no rules and recognize no boundaries when we are at work. We flog that old devil rust unmercifully and when we get an image we like, we share it. It's often a tad above what most folks can relate to, but then, we're JUNKIES.

    The full Rust Junkie style is an acquired taste, as with any personal liking.

    Careful... that's a little like walking into the Hen House and announcing that you don't like omelets... :D
