sad

The wheel sprocket and hub of an old piece of farm equipment found piled up in a copse of trees on an abandoned farm.

In color this photo was not nearly as interesting. It simply looked like what it is, a rusted hunk of metal. In B&W, with a bit of contrast added, the "face" became much more apparent. It almost seemed to take on a "life" of it's own.

CANON EOS Rebel XTi w/ a CANON 35-105mm 1:4.5-5.6 zoom.
