Default Shades Of Rust

From a recent visit to the HM Naval Dockyards in Portsmouth.
I saw this huge gearing sat on the dockside just going rusty and like how nature was taking it back. Just like the colors and industrial feel of it, hope you do too.
Have a great weekend folks.
David.

Thanks for this David. I guess thousands of people will have walked past this and never noticed it, but because of your keen eye, we can all see it. Have a good one yourself. PAUL
