Rust Art And Random Photos

It's time for another session of random photos, one crazier than other. I've been collecting these photos, took the shots whenever I saw something interesting, with the intention to post them one day and that day is today.

I bet you're rolling your eyes, asking yourself, what you are looking at here. Good question :)) Well, this is a half orange, on a green bench, both frozen. The truth is, I would ask the same question, like who in their right mind would photograph such thing, right? Well, I did. Am I in my right mind? Who knows, but the scene looked good. I have no idea how that half orange ended up on the bench, but looked good, especially covered by frozen snow. You'll see why I considered it interesting, right below.

Do you see any any similarities between the two photos?

Last week I needed some official documents and was on my way to a certain office to get them, when I spotted an old chain-link fence, in front of a building that seemed out of use. Used to be a factory, but I don't know if there's any activity there as it seemed quiet and kind of abandoned. I saw the chain-link fence and could not resist taking a few photos.

I'm a huge rust art fan, but this is not exactly rust art, or just partly, to be precise. Part of the beauty represents the peeling paint, which is also something I love.

The truth is, I only took a couple of photos and regretted not taking more, when I got home, but as I had to go back for more clarifications and papers (yes, bureaucracy is real and working perfectly against me in this case), on my way back to the office this week, I thought I'd take some more photos.

This time I stopped for a few minutes, looked for the most interesting parts, where the paint was really peeling off and the rust was visible beneath.

So what do the two scenes have in common? The first photo has a green bench and half of an orange. So the two colors are green and orange. The second theme, the chain-link fence is also green and orange. The top layer of the paint is green and if I'm not mistaken, beneath there's an orange layer, then comes the rust, which adds to the colors.

At this point, I'm curious to know how many of you are shocked to see these photos.

I thought this photo shoot will be easy as you just have to select the spots with the most rust or peeled off paint, but who would have thought the yard is full of garbage. Then came the challenge of finding a decent angle, to avoid capturing the garbage, but still focus on the desired spot. Yes, who said photography is easy, right?

These are not the usual photos one would expect and not many can see the beauty in this peel off paint, maybe I'm the only one. I guess I'll now by tomorrow :)

@dimascastillo90, have you ever taken such shots? 😆 I guess this is not your cup of tea.

Then there were a few dry leaves still left, covered by snow. I love scenes like this as the dry leaves and the snow are kind of not compatible with each other. Most of the leaves usually fall down till the snow arrives, but these most likely are the stubborn kind :)

Today, on my way home, I spotted this cat, resting on the top of the gate. It was kind of unusual as the gate was pretty high, over 2m by my estimations but that did not bother this creature. She (maybe a he?) was just looking at me as I took out my phone to take a few photos. I must admit, I was pretty brave as she could jump on my head anytime, but she didn't.

She wasn't interested in me. She turned her head away. I didn't know if she took offense for something I did or didn't do, or if I should take offense for not being considered worth to look at. After a few seconds of thinking, got no answer, so I decided to leave. It'll remain a mystery forever :))

Last, but not least, a photo that maybe is my most favorite today. I love scenes like this one, although maybe I'm the only one seeing a lot of meaning in such scenes. Look at that little green island, fighting against icy snow. I love it! Simple and beautiful.

This was the photo parade for today. I tried to select some random photos, but in my great effort, managed to select two themes somehow connected to each other. I love these random photo posts by the way.

I hope you have a favorite, so let me know. If you don't, that's ok too, no worries :)
