WoW! I really enjoyed all the photos. I like the rusty theme through out the post. ;) Panorama is gorgeous! :D

I am floored by these – I loved the pictures of all the rusty bits, they’re incredible. You are so freaking talented it’s not true.

For whatever reason you thought your sunday stills submission was lacking, you compensated ten times over with all these – a real feast for the eyes! Especially the industrial/medieval feel on some of them. Great job on that tunnel one, balancing the light end with dark walls. I thought I would’ve straightened that one up, but looking at it more, the slight tilt makes me feel like I’m peeking around the corner trying to escape… something… :D

Really great post. I also like the rusty appearance of it, and post-processing is appropriately used. And I’m glad you avoided the flash (the high ISO quality is impressive!). What is that thing in the first photo?

I love pictures of staircases. Any staircases but the more rustic is usually the more better. DSC_0503.jpg is my fav.

Your high-ISO shots are excellent. I have always liked your eye and your knack for composition but technically, these are spectacular.

I really enjoy the lantern picture, Chloe! All of these are fantastic, but that one is my favorite.

great pictures, as usual!
I like the ‘rust’ theme you see to have going on. It’s all so old and dilapidated.
If these walls could talk, mate. Oi.

I particularly like the first and second from last photos. I think it is the processing and blue colouring to both of them that does it for me. Well done :)

Hi Chloe,
Those pictures are really great especially the stairway with the Fort Nepean sign at the side, will be great for a metal band album cover.

Your photos take us on a mesmerizing trip to this old fort that did service in two wars. It leaves me rather sad to see something that was built to preserve the freedom of men slowly rusting away.
The first photo reminds me very much of something from the game Myst which gave me much pleasure long ago.

Love the rusty bench, looks like it’s about to collapse. There seems to be a consistent style developing in your shots. Is this something you’re developing (pardon the pun) :)

Ooh, ancient, rusty, cobwebby stuff! Awesome :) If these were prints, I would buy them. I have an antique-fetish *grins*

That first one is absolutely stunning. You have really gotten good with your processing lately.

Mostly I’ve been being lazy and not shooting. There is good news though- I’ll be teaching photography this summer using old manual 35mm cameras and (possibly) a darkroom!
The strobe was right of the camera hitting the surface (which is actually a train car) from about forty-five degrees and low (maybe three feet off the ground). This way I got the nice gradient that makes it look vignetted. I bumped the contrast with curves (especially bringing down the shadows) and toned it in post.
