Rust Bucket

Posted by
Twelvebit (Victoria, United States) on 13 January 2010 in Landscape & Rural.

I just can't seem to catch up with my blogging. It's embarrassing that I keep saying I'm going to and then get overrun by events once more. I was planning to dedicate the afternoon to it yesterday, but it didn't work out that way. I don't know how those of you getting 50 and 90 comments an image can keep up. I'm not giving up though.....yet.

What a superb image!!! Don't knock yourself out over blogging my friend...I did that and was getting lots more comments but my whole evening every night was taken up by it.....only sustainable for a short while and then burn out hits!!!
We'll all be here so just catch up when you can...no worries:-)

@Linerberry: Once you get behind, the struggle to catch up becomes even more daunting. I've definitely felt the edges of burnout. More than once I've asked myself why I do it, and questioned whether or not I should continue. Certainly my feelings about blogging and motivations for doing it have changed.

Interesting sharping and composition, well done!
As for comments. The best way to get more comments is to comment others :)

@Alexey: Not really looking for more comments --I can't keep up with the ones I'm getting. I just don't know how people who get more keep up.

Marleen from Netherlands

Brilliant! OC not the truck, but your capture:-)
The rust is providing it with a great color....
I agree, blogging takes a lot of time and time flies.....when you're having fun.....;-)) Liner's right: no worries!

Don't worry and don't set yourself under too much pressure. Your great photos speak for themselves, and I wished they would get much more attention.

@MadScientist: I don't know how much more attention I can stand. I can't keep up with the comments now.

Nice frame behind the tree, a good crop and the color is excellent.

I like the layering of the fence, the tree and finally the van. Good one.

I don't know how much more attention I can stand. - So many here get 100+ comments and respond to only a few. I don't think that this is bad behaviour. Take it easy. :-)
