I like it as an abstract. Don't care for the frame. Gave you a 6

ahhhhhhh....very nice and I don't even mind the frame...just endough shadows and darke so that the rust does take over the shot...quite fine. 10

I feel the border distracts from the orangy rust in this shot. Although, I have admit that I am not much for adding borders to shots, unless the border is very muted, almost nonexistent colorwise.

Other then the border, I like the choice you made for this shot. It shows some nice rusty color variation along with just a hint of the clean metal at the edges in a few spots.

Excellent composition! Focus is spot on, lighting is just right and good contrast. I'm not too fond of borders though but i won't deduct points for that! Good luck with this! 10

This does not appeal to me. Colors, shapes,shadows. I can see that others might find it quite lovely. I will give it a 5 though that is higher than its appeal to me.

Good one, whatever it is. Nice subtle border too. Had it been allowed, I'd cloned out the two small gaps. The top one steals my eye a bit.

Really rusty indeed! 8!

Interesting shapes and lines! There are many in this challenge that push the color limits without success--but I think it works well in this image. Nicely done!

Very nice rust picture. The color and focus are wonderful. It reminds me very much of one of the pics in the abstract challenge.

awesome. love the lines. too bad you can't spot-burn that bright white area in the upper left. good job. 8

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.

Very good! I like it.

Beautiful color, shadow and composition. I'm not keen on the border, but that may be be a personal thing.

Pretty abstract shot. I like it.

I very much like this absract rendition of the Rusted challenge. It works well in many ways, but most of all, it is "good seeing." Nice.

I like the composition. Nice to look at. Good use of contrast (shadows). (9)

Very interesting composition, really caught my eye, I like the contrast in the shadows and on each piece
  Photographer found comment helpful.

i find this shot looks very fluid. i like the dark shadows, they contrast the "rust" nicely. nice job
  Photographer found comment helpful.
05/05/2004 04:24:33 PM
Nice, would have done well in the abstract challenge too.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
05/05/2004 04:23:12 PM
Color/toning: Great vibrant rusty browns of various shades.

Composition/cropping: A good mix of curves and lines, certainly supporting the abstract look.

Subject: No idea what it is but that's partly why I like it. The color, texture, curves, and even the shadows all make up a chaotic pattern that has interest and meets the challenge.

Technical: I dont see anything that needs changing.

Artistic: It has a great flow like waves of rusted metal.

Overall: Vibrant, flowing, clear, and with no distractions. It's a good abstract image.

The border because it is so close to the color in the picture, but yet cleaner, becomes stronger, thus detracting from the photo, a simple black would have been better
