can barely tell what this is, let alone tell if it's rusty. I think I can see a wheel near the top of the photo that is a bit orange, assuming that's the rust. I wonder what this would have turned out like if you had focussed on that one wheel. Maybe be a stronger match for the challenge. Maybe wouldn't be able to tell what it was, but we can barely do that now. I would definatley prefer a tighter close up of that wheel. otherwise, focus and clarity are alright, and lighting seems to have been on your side as well. ~Heather~
I just don't get it. Is that a bike under the grass and weeds? Perhaps so, but hard to say. In any event, this picture isn't conveying RUST to me ... it's conveying grass and/or weeds. 2

If I wern't looking for rust I would not be able to pick it out from the rest of the image. It needs to be more prominant for me.

Maybe if you had moved in closer and got a shot of the wheel guard. As it is the rusty fender is pretty well obscured and really doesn't serve to enhance the composition. Hope this is helpful.
I'm really lost here to understand this pic. I think theres a bicycle down there but I could easily be mistaken. imho you could've focused more closely on a specific part of this hidden object
Is something under there? Is it a bike? A little hard to see Think its a bike though, mabey more zoom on the rusty parts would be better, and more contrast, Good luck :)
