    I was thinking of one but the amount of rust is not all that huge.
    Are these lamps rusty enough?

    Yes, they will certainly do. You need a new topic.

    I will link to one of my rust photos because it shows how little one of my friends understands art. This art piece is at the Museum of Old and New Art (MONA) here in Hobart. My friend said that someone should contact the artist and tell him his artwork was rusting so he could do something about it, adding that the work should be undercover or made of a material that didn't rust. I told her that it was obvious that the artist actually meant for it to rust.

    I've been thinking a lot about rust!

    The university in town is covered in rusting plates (also by design), my friends garden has lumps of metal slowly dissolving here and there in it and my own café-table and -chairs could do with a layer of paint.

    Oh, and I found the rusty chain they use to keep people from parking on the church steps...

    It just took me a bit of time to not be making the photographs in torrential downpour.

    And when I had, they didn't look too good to me.

    How would you go about shooting an embarrassing moment? -you'd need careful planning or a snapshot from the past to do that :eek::rommie:

    I looked and looked but could find much until I came across a photo that Miss Chicken (the cat - may she rest in peace) insisted was an embarrassing moment for her.

    The other cat is called Crumb and he mysteriously disappeared not long after this photo was taken.

    I am not sure if this really fits the criteria so I will wait to see if Davros passes it.

    ^If it doesn't, then I have a perfect embarrassing moment picture! This is my older sister (age about 16) explaining the joys of womanhood to my younger sister (age about 11), given the side by side treatment by J. Allen when the unimpressed gymnast meme was big:

    Okay, I had to look up what on Earth that was on the left edge of the picture! So someone made a giant statue based on that famous WWII photograph?

    Yes, it is a very nice photo of Miss Chicken, Miss Chicken - Even with Crumb photobombing it.

    Which brings me to my take on "Eyes" - they just happened to fit what I was drinking :)

    Is that acceptable for Eyes? - If so, the next thing to post would be something edible!

    Nothing sunnier than the sun even when it is shining through the smoke from the bushfires we had here earlier in the year. Taken mid-afternoon on our hottest day ever.
