Spent some time around train tracks this weekend near Mossy Head, FL. There is something very appealing to me about rust and iron.

Wow! I love these awesome shots of the bridge.
This is my FAVORITE SET that you have done. I seriously love it Tara, this is gorgeous. <3
Beautiful. I like the pairing of rust and iron as well.
Those are spectacular shots, I agree there is something about rust. Just beautiful.
I remember saying to someone one day – Oh I don’t want a picture of THAT! It’s too new looking LOL The third shot is more interesting than I would have thought. I’m not sure I would have gotten that shot had I been there. Thanks again for opening my eyes to another view.
Oh Tara – that Emerson comment – you’re not an amateur. Perhaps sometime in the distant past you were, but you are truly accomplished and always pushing yourself to explore more. There is always beauty here.
great perspective on the rusting chains!
I love these! That third shot is really gorgeous.
I love the shot of the chains. I’m totally with you on the rust and iron love. The whole set is just gorgeous!
I like these pictures. Used to have a fetish for the railway tracks a few years ago, and never tired of taking pictures – seemed to show something new every time.
Lovely Tara!
Very nice pictures. Almost reminded me of living in Southwestern PA.
Oh, me too! There’s something so cool about rusty metal. Also, exploring old train tracks. My grandfather was a breakman for a steam engine that ran from Hungary into Austria. My grandmother’s train pass, with a picture of her as a child, is one of my greatest possessions.
The rust and iron make a great photo opportunity. I lived most of my life on the Gulf Coast, where there were plenty of opportunities for rust and metal to make fascinating mixtures.
Oh yes…I like these but where are the macros of rust?! :)
Great shots!!
