i grabbed this at a warehouse in downtown Brooklyn.
i was particularly interested in the way the rust-stained water acted as a paint, adding a new layer of texture to the image. mother nature at its finest.

I didn't vote on this but it would have gotten at least a 6 or 7 from me. It shows a very good eye for seeing art in the mundane. The focus could be a little sharper in the rusty area, perhaps, but overall I think it really works. I think I'll put it in my favorites because it so refreshing from most of what I saw in this challenge (I didn't see everything which is why I didn't vote on this).
Great catch. I love the urban feel of this, the decay and the weathering. The textures are wonderful as are the colors. The contrast could be bumped just slightly to give us a greater sense of the depth.

Very artistic. I don't like the wad of paper on the right at all.
