The spiderweb is very cool in this image, and I like the rectangular cropping. A droplet of water on the web would have really bumped this up for me.

Amazing shot!! This is one of my favorites in the rust challenge. I love how the spider webs surround the rust. It helps the viewer to remember that rust is old, and it also gives a rather ancient, mysterious feeling. Amazing job. Also, the photo is perfectly in focus. 10!

I like diffused background. There is immense realism and lack of pose in this shot. The colors are right on, the cobweb help, and I really like how the diffusion of the background works. This picture immediately made me aware that I do not know what the galvanization process for iron is or what causes the white spots I see on galvanized pipes. Any picture that makes me think deserves a good rating. I just am not too happy with the composition.

For me clipping each side heavily results in a much stronger picture. On the left just to the right of the open pipe end, and to the right just a little beyond the end of the wire.

An 8.

Great detail and color, the spider web really emphsizes the rustyness of the wire.

Good luck...

cobwebs really add to the interest of this shot, like the colour contrasts too.

Nice color and focus decisions. I like the fact that you ignored the ROT and made it work well. -8
