Interesting observation.Interesting shot! framed it well. The light and shadows, colours and the composition have worked out well. Good effort!

Pat,
An interesting picture of this row of Mail boxes on Lofty Lane some more rusted than others...I'd be worried about anything valuable left in the boxes...they look too easy to break open. Beautiful composition framing and lighting taken with superb camera techniques and sharp focus.

I love old rusty things and this is right up my alley. A beautiful display of country mail boxes. Excellent depth in the composition. I like the slight show of blue sky in the back ground. Makes you wonder how the people live who own these. The rust is wonderful. I have a tee shirt form the Pickers that says "In Rust We Trust". This would be great framed and hanging in my hall way. One Beautiful Photo.

This looks a little like my mailbox which is down on the corner with 5 or 6 others. I must admit that these have more character though. A nicely composed shot on a beautiful overcast day.

Very nice! I love your eye for pictures! I am impressed. I would have shot this too. I don't see this around home but I like your idea so much that I will keep my eye out! Good job!

    Thank you so much Willie! I was actually up here late Kong?s for Sandhill Cranes, didn?t see any Cranes but spotted these rusty mailboxes!

This photo actually makes me smile and invites me to walk down memory lane. I have lived in a rural area the majority of my life, and the old rusted mailboxes all bunched together just reminds me of a simpler time where everything didn't move so quickly. I will even bet that beat up mailbox is even still functionally used! :) Thank you for sharing such a great photo!

When you're giving directions to someone you don't like you tell em ."go down the road till ya see mailboxes and I live not far from there. " ..then that person will get aquatinted with all the dogs and out in the country they love to run...lol.. the clarity is great. The angle of the shot of these mailboxes is great. The capture of the light is great. The image is balanced and eye appealing to the viewer. Good eye and great job overall

Yeah.Pat!
This row of mail boxes ( some of which look almost as deteriorated as mine does! ) makes for a captivating picture indeed,my friend!
It's got the sort of 'mundane' look to it that makes a photograph genuinely interesting in my opinion,my friend!
( It reminds me of all of my 'junked car' photos but it's of a much higher quality! : ) )
'Good Show'!
