Time, neglect, and exposure the elements can have amazing effects on the appearance of so many things. Despite the usual

focus on new shiny objects, these are often not just visually compelling as those that have stood the test of time and present

their own unique appeal.

​

Walk around to capture the amazing textures and colors in old rusted cars, peeling paint on a rundown building, walls, doors, 

and windows of an abandoned, dilapidated, factory, contrasting plaster and lathing on a corroded wall and the myriad of 

possible captures in a junkyard. 

​

Neighborhoods, disparagingly called "run down", are treasure troves of "decayed" tumble down houses, "corroded" discarded

toys, "rusted" cars, trash cans and so on.

​

Decay, Corrosion, Rust...can take many forms, black and white, color, abstract - all photographic media are welcome.
