Heh, heh!

Wonder if that lenscap needed some salsa or something to help get it down, Susan.....

On second thought you could also be RayEthier...

I'm wondering how that lenscap tasted? :-)

I like this simple yet poiniant image. Even without the theme of the challange and the title you have given it. I would want to look at and study the image. Its the point of focus, the line of the wire through the diagonal and the noise in the image which gives that gritty, sandy quality. That and the colour. I can almost feel the rust between my fingers yet know that it will still hurt to be on the wrong end of the spines. Excellent shot, of which I would be proud. Only another photographer would say that of this image I suppose?

nice idea:) i love the grain and the texture of the wire, it really conveys the exact tone and feeling of your title

Hmm, how many people have commented that this is too noisy?
Nice use of grain to give the right feel here.

I think the grainyness of this photo works well with the subject/idea you're trying to convey. Nice composition and lighting.
