Study in [wet] blue

SUN! The sun came out today after a night of rain. I spotted a stand with old farm equipment driving by on the weekend and went for a short exploration today. Instead of looking around, I was glued to this old machine (sort of conveyor belt for grapes?), specifically to this end of it with three wet wooden things. The machine used to be painted in a odd combination of peach (!) and periwinkle (!), and the washed out color, and the wet wood, and the rust and the peachy pink was just mesmerising. In editing, I increased the contrast to make the wet wood stand out more, but the blue was basically as is! I think the colors stand out more if viewed on black.
As always, thank you for viewing. Comments and constructive criticism are very much appreciated.
I can understand your fascination with this. It is so interesting. The wear and patina of age, the curiosity (how does it work), the texture...really nice. Good eye to capture this!

Привет, я бы не постеснялся откромсать до левого угла правой доски. Цвета и правда прикольные!

Привет! Прикинула про откромсать - можно. Хотя мне нравится, что справа снова рама металлическая начинается.

Thank you very much guys for commenting on this - I think among my pictures so far, this might be one of my favourites - because of the strangeness of the subject, and the wonderful color that made me happy.

And Beverly, thanks for the follow!
