Rusted Fence by taffy

Rusted Fence

On my walk today to photograph things moving, I was struck by this rusted fence. It goes along Harrison Street just west of the Greyhound Bus Depot next to a vacant lot. You can see the south Loop area peeking behind. I do like photographing fences and I'm starting to think, the rustier, the better.
Fabulous dof. Love the textures in the rust and that you can see part of the city behind. Nice capture.

Great lines and rust. You should tag this for the eye of the beholder challenge 5 challenge.

Great shot! Love the lines and textures. Your focus is spot on!

Excellent textures and angle! Did you wander through there in time to see any of the market?
March 25th, 2013  
Nice shot! Yep, the rustier the better :)

Yum! You could just sink your teeth into that texture.

I have been more keen on rust after the word of the day was rust back in, what, February? Nice shot.

HI Taffy, with passover preperations over the weekend I also did not have time to look through your album. I will post something tomorrow. Chag Sameach.

Thanks for viewing, commenting, and liking the rust! (I'm sorry for the group message, but I'd rather use the time to look at your photos and comment there - couldn't do both tonite.)

Love the angle.

Great shot of the fence and the blurred buildings are a perfect backdrop.

Well done! It doesn't look like a fence at first. I like how you composed this and the dof as the fence recedes into the picture.
March 27th, 2013  
LOVE the focus!
March 27th, 2013  
Love the lines and dof!

Thank you Danielle, Daniel, Ann, Colie, and Amanda, for the visit and the support. Ever since starting 365 I'm noticing what I would have just walked by in the past.

That rust gives such interesting texture, as well as variety to the predictability of the lines of the fence.

@jyokota I will always be drawn to patterns - 365 is opening my eyes that there is beauty in mundane and otherwise 'ugly' objects. This fence is really decaying.
