Yes Bob, I went back yesterday, and to the scrap metal dealers to secure a few more too.
In fact I got 2 nice ones of the one below which I include here for you viewing pleasure.
(It's ok if u groan because I can't hear you) :-)
The trouble is that I now have to many to choose from.
A question too, if you don't mind: I am resizing down to 1200x800 and I am wondering if that is too big. With photos like this, scrolling around looses the impact you want, whereas in a nice astro shot it is good to be able to scroll around and look at the detail.
Ur opinion would be welcome.
Good show Trevor, Im like the 2nd most, even tho the large steel sleeper holders are kind of 'steeling' <- Pun) the show a little

If you see the attached which is a 'Screen Snip' of the photo viewing window- in the upper right corner is a 'switch' (youll need your mouse pointer in the window to activate/show this tool bar) which toggles between (photo at Full Size) & (Photo to Fit window) -> Click on it to minimise the photo to the window if too big !
Might be helpful to know
The toggle switch will either be a dot, or a dot with four arrows around it, which mean - expanded.
Rgrds ..

I don't know what they call these. they are used to tie the railroad line to the cross-ties, or sleepers..
the sun was strong that day and cast a deep shadow that lifted it out on it's own.
I agree Bob, it is cool and was one of my favourites from that particular day out.
However it doesn't strictly fit the theme of "Rusty Nails, Screws, Bolts and/or Nuts", so i have to go with one that does and it was a hard choice given the Old train yard, and the Scrap metal Yard photos.
Good stuff Trevor, guess the line has been drawn .
Being a little more specific with 'Subject' seems to have dropped the number of entrants thus far ? ?
Yeah, maybe Bob, but I am hoping they are all holding back until the last days. It's happened before.
It's not a hard theme, in fact I had so many to choose from I ran a vote on my FB page and let my friends choose :-)

Great shot Trevor, almost like a sculpture, photographic artistry at the very least, well done.
Seeing that you have a smile on your face -all must ave went well
'ope it wasn't too nasty to begin with
Thanks Bob.
It was a nasty kidney stone, still haven't passed it yet.
They operated and put in a stent for now until infection goes away so they can blast it loose.
Doctors found it a bit awkward operating on me with my helmet on though.
