Rust #2 Dumpster

2nd image of rust on a dumpster in downtown GSO, NC.   This rust image reminded me of grass when I looked at in on the computer monitor. The orignal image was muted colors of the image on the left with less texture.   I edited in PSE 11 using sliders for light and dark, midtones to get the effect I wanted.  Then I sharpened to 100.  I further enhanced the colors by using Saturated Film effect x2.  The image on the right I wanted to try to work with Vintage effect in PSE 11. Using the edited image on the left,  I played with hue and saturation and wanted more orange/red tones than browns. It ended up as a monochrome.  I should have left more space at the top when I took the image. I will be revisiting this dumpster if the sun ever shines.  If I get desperate, I can always make my own rust by watching You Tube videos.   .
