Excellent example of rust for certain, placed in a nice diagonal composition. The background is strong - not grabbing attention from he main subject but still having some "things to look at."
Is this intentional irony? Good work to produce such a well lit well defined subject with so little glare and so little heavy shadow and such a diffused even background of such interesting color contrast.The composition is a little unsettling but I think something in a picture must unsettle or we shall soon lose interest. Very good.
