Rusted (41 of 365)

Rusted_Staples[2009]

I love, love, love this picture! I don't really know why. This is a telephone pole (who knows, it could be a light pole) that's been used hundreds of times as a spot to hang flyers and posters. It has a tone of industrial staples stuck in it and they're all gritty and rusty.

What an interesting macro shot! I would never have figured out what it was. (Funny, isn't it, how a particular thing strikes our fancy, for no apparent rhyme or reason?) I like this one, too!

Very cool image, although I would have never knew what it was until you told us - love all the lines in this!

Great macro. I would never have known what it was if you hadn't explained.

I always see those staples in phone poles and am attracted to them too. But, I'd never thought to take a shot of them and even if I had, I'm sure it wouldn't have been as cool as this. Well done!
