Wow this is really neat. I like how you have that precise photograph of this stone. I like how you selected the clean part as well as the rusty part. Feels like an overcast day, with the way the colors and contrast seems muted, plus the moisture in the middle parts also seems to infer that as well. I like how when I look at this photo I have to think for a second what's going on, leaving room for the imagination.

Beautiful capture....the best part is your composition....it pulls the eye the area of interest...rusting pattern is also looking good and the shading in the stone is adding to the overall impact

Quite a good looking entry into the competition posted here into the competition. Your fine and classical composition gives us an enjoyable, close look at your millstone. Exposure and sharpness are good. Well posted!

This close-up photograph looks abstract, although, it is excellent focused and exposed. The mixed media effects are expertly applied. The textures of the millstone and the rust shows perfectly and in refined detail. The colors appear realistic. The bolt and nut are perfectly placed within the frame. The composition is balanced.

Cool!
The slow ( very slow ) burning of corrosion has stained this stone surface in a rather interesting manner,hasn't it?
And you've captured the effect of the 'slow fire' very attractively in the superb picture,my friend!
'Good Show'!
