Such SPECTACULAR lighting! Perfect composition. I usually try to make a suggestion on how to improve an image, but in this case - you've done it so well, I'm speechless. Get ready for a ribbon.

Effective composition, lines, texture, colors. The black between your shapes makes the rusted color pop. If you need a border at all (which I doubt) - my guess is that it should match the black color in the image. This one competes with your subject matter.

Rust never sleeps. (now we know why)

Simple yet effective. Great colors and texture. While a black border is probably appropriate for this image - it's way too big for me.

Nice composition and beautiful lighting on the cement building. Too bad the rusted object is in shadow.

Your image, intentional or not, is an optical illusion. Sometimes it looks like the ruty area is the object and other times like the green area is the object. Nice rust and texture therin. If you rotate it 90 degrees counter clockwise it may be a stronger image - kinda like a human figure. If you re-shoot try to tone down the background a bit by making those bright yellow / orange objects fall into a shadowed area.

Rusty links in the chain

Definitely rusted. Nice textures and lines. You are the victim of being one of many, many "chain link" images so competition is tough. The best advise I'd offer on your entry is to do the exact same thing again when you have some dramatic lighting. The flat lighting here nakes it pretty mundane.

Just A Little Rusty After The Winter

An original concept on "rusted" - glad it's not another chain link or lock. You need more depth of field if possible. The white in the background and the frame are both detractors.

The blue flower is really vibrant against the dark background. Unfortunaely most of the rustry areas are not sharp. Seems a bit too contrived.

Great subject. Your choice of f stop didn't give you much DoF - try it again with the lens stopped way down.

Rusted But Still Trusted

Nice macro with great DoF. Side/back lighting made some nice shadow accents.
