Nature's Dishby *NicPi

I fell in love with the colors and structures on a rusty metal garbage container

Too often, things like rust and decay are overlooked and not recognized enough as being potentially beautiful and intriguing. Here, you've managed to capture both the beauty and the intrigue. Photographing texture in all its glory is often very difficult and you've risen to the challenge well.

The array of colours captured is just beautiful, the contrast and comparison between them works wonderfully and you really do fit the true definition of abstract. I like that your focus is straight, your crop is square and your signature is minimal - a nice touch that many don't pay attention to!

Overall, a lovely piece of work, a very detailed yet simplistic capture in content and execution. Well done

This is the kind of work I like a lot. The mix of colors is well balanced. The white blue zone constrasts very well with the orange and red tones.
I would have prefered more constrast and more sharpness but I'm convinced that your original picture is just perfect on these aspects. dA gives a rendering softer than the real work, and the greenish background is quite not helpful.
I'm not able to explain why, but I would suggest you the try the following modification :
- rotate the image 90 degre anti clock. The result could be stronger. The line has a bigger presence.
