This challenge is all about " Rust"---Its everywhere ---- Don't be afraid to crawl under that car---That plumbing in the basement--Those tools you left outside--That old bridge-- Make something beautiful out of something ugly. ----(closeups macros / normal shots-any post processing ok) ---- Be creative!---Have fun! --Enjoy!

The challenge begins now and ends Wednesday, September 14th at 8:00 PM , Eastern Day Light Saving Time.
THE RULES
The host gives you a topic of interest and you get going.
You may enter up to three competition images.

The host chooses the winner after the challenge closes (usually after one week). The decision of the judge (the host) is final. The judge is not eligible. The winner then chooses the next topic, runs the challenge, judges the winner, and passes on the baton to that person.

If you submit a photo, please check in when the winners are posted. The first place winner is expected to host the next challenge. If the first place person cannot host, it moves to the 2nd place, etc.
Any picture you've taken is eligible regardless of time taken and camera.

Please reply to the FIRST (ORIGINAL) post if you are submitting an entry and please remember to change the Subject of your post to display your name or picture titles. This way, when someone comments (i.e. replies), it will refer specifically to you. If all entries read "Re: Mini Challenge #274"... it would be very boring to scan the list.
Try to put your entries within a 'single' post.

Please give a title to each photo - this makes it easier to differentiate when giving comments.

Feel free to comment on other contestants' images. If you want someone to leave you a piece of constructive criticism, put an asterisk * next to the title of the image.
POSTING GUIDELINES

Please embed your image in the thread. Also please re-size your photos prior to posting so they're sized appropriately for viewing without having to scroll (approx. 800 pixels on the longest side works best.)

As a show of courtesy, and to save bandwidth, please remove the original post when replying, so you don't bring back any previous photos.? List of past CTF Mini Challenge topics and winners thanks to blademeister?. http://homepages.peakpeak.com/~blade/minichallenge.html
The main thing to remember: HAVE SOME FUN!

Don't be afraid to crawl under that car---That plumbing in the basement ...
Neusiedler See (Fertő tó) is a lake on the Austrian-Hungarian border, mostly in Austria. There is a bike road around it, and I made the tour several times. It is a nice tour.

Now there happens to be there a village named Rust, as seen also in the name of this lake restaurant, presented herewith for fun and exhibition:

I'm entering three from my cycling trips on Gran Canaria. The first is of course a bicycle:





The second is made by an artist, Guy Martin





The third is a "lost" car:



 
Very old elevator, downtown Denver





Very old warehouse, downtown Denver





Very old car (sensing a theme), Idaho Springs





Cheers!

Well, I really couldn't find any shots that were rust themed. I only found one that even has a little rust in it, so I'll throw it out there even though it doesn't quite seem to fit the category.

I shot this with my 40D and Tokina 19-35 (The original Plastic Fantastic) on the northern tip of the Big Island of Hawaii a couple years ago.

Great way to start this challenge off ----- I have a sample image I wanted to post that was very much like your "parts on fence" image.
 
very clever -- i should have said "oxidation" but im a little rusty at this.
 
Thought the barb on that wire was a pointing finger and hand at first glance-- what is the textured background? cool shot for sure-
 
Rusty Heaven ;)













Enjoy!
