Hanging on

Exery time I walk past this rusty old wrought iron gate the scrollwork near the top hinge catches my eye. This time it was shut and offered a different background for the shot.

Great image, good, sharp detail and even better colour mix of the rust and background colours.

Best regards

admirable color palette,.. the contrast between rust and green-blue background makes the pic pretty strong, .. I'd also mention remarkable DOF management
