Metal oddities
It has been a frigid, uninspiring February. Towards the end we finally ventured out to get some much needed Dim Sum at Hei La Moon, and then Trader Joe’s for coffee - necessities! Along the way I took my smaller Fuji X-E3 along with its compact lens. Mainly details and rust and metal objects. Texture.
I like the form and texture of the massive black metal piece with the rusty flange hole. It was shot through the chain link fence using my X-E3, 27mm fixed lens. MBTA Red Line Yard, South Boston
A detail of one the massive support columns being placed around the tracks at South Station for the new tower going up over the station and the tracks. I like the rust, and the bolts of course. Fuji X-E3, 27mm fixed lens.
I guess this is vertically mounted rail car hookup, in the South Station terminal. Looks like a face to me but then 30% of my visual cortex is dedicated to facial recognition……Now if I could remember their name……
The twist of the iron and the sweep of the street…..Melcher Street in Fort Channel district of Boston (where does the Seaport end and Fort Point begin)……
I guess its a rusty metal theme….Looking through staircase between Summer St and A St.
Does this work? Heavily edited to bring the birds out from the gloom of the overcast sky….
South Station under construction, I could not get good shots of the crane, I had a fixed lens and I still have trouble adjusting for shooting straight up into the overcast sky…..
This was hanging out abandoned on the street outside the welding shop across from the Gillette factory in South Boston. Slightly enhanced :-0 I of course like the patina and the shape and the stamped lettering and those sexy sexy Hex head bolts.
Swirly architectural detail that adorns the building Menton is In on Summer St. This unfortunately is compressed JPEG because the full one was huge (21MB) which SQUARESPACE limits to 20MB. Most of you won’t notice any difference since you are most likely looking at this on a telephone screen and not a large monitor…..
