Theme Day - rust

Welcome :)

It was suggested I start this blog by a friend of mine.  I love photography.  I also love the city of Napier. Before I start I would like to thank Amy as I have found a new excitement in my hobby :)  You have motivated me friend :)  

I am going to be linking to a host site called City Daily Photo and they have theme days on the first of the month.  Today's theme is rust.  So without further a do here is my photo of rust.



I had a walk around Ahuriri (a seaside suburb of Napier) yesterday afternoon and came across this mural painted on the corner of a building.  Can you see the lines of rust? - shame really :(

    Looking forward to more photos from you, Jen, and welcome to CDP. We are a friendly bunch, and you'll find many friends among us. Water is a great precursor to rust so boats and harbors are a wonderful place to find an image for this theme.

    Welcome to photoblogging, and a good choice for the theme. I'm going to have to look your location up in an atlas.

      as I have stated in my sidebar Napier is a New Zealand city with a seaport, located in the Hawke's Bay on the eastern coast of the North Island.

    What a lifelike mural! And yes, now I see the culprit, the metal, up on top, sharing its rust.

    Welcome to the group, Jen, and have fun blogging!

    OH, now that I look at it closely I can see it's a mural. Rather clever!

    Not so nifty with all that rust by the look of it - welcome to the CDPB community - We passed through Napier in 2001 staying at "The Large House" - don't know if it is still a boutique b&b now.

      The house is probably there just no longer a b&b - my account is at .http://www.geraldengland.co.uk/nz/nzj021.htm I didn't take any photos in Napier itself so used one off their website to illustrate that day!

    This new blog is a great idea Jen and I enjoy seeing your photos of Napier from your daily walks.

    I thought this photo was of a real boat at first sight. Very clever.
