I found this rusty ols abandoned office chair in a wasteland that is just a short distance from a picturesque riverside walk.
what I like most about this picture is that it looks virtually sepiatoned. I took the picture because I liked the rusty chair; it was only when I looked at the image that I realised that the whole scene seemed to be composed of rust colours.
I welcome all constructive comments, compliments and criticisms. I am here to learn. the fastest way for me to learn is for you to be really unforgiving and articulate in your criticism =D)

I thought you processed it... looks like it's been there a very long time! Nice find.

An interesting discovery, this photo does look as if it is mostly sepia-toned.

Got to admit you are correct about the sepia and for some reason I quite like it

The colors are great - I love that overall rusty look. Great composition and lighting of this "trashy" subject. Well done...

Great shot, and a good eye. Interesting colours and if you hadn't mentioned it, I would have thought it was pp. Great work.

Again... old... rusty... I like!! It's a great find, Dan. I wish I could really articulate why I find the derelict so appealing... shrug... ;-)

In the animal world this would be called mimikry... Well seen and captured!

Isn't it gratifying when Nature and the camera work so well together?! The coloring in this is perfect : rust in a world of rust.
