Rustlets
Comments: 5
If I had a dollar for every photograph of rust that’s ever been taken, I could buy that island in the Caribbean I’ve had my eye on. Here are little rust flowers blooming on a tin barbecue we use for yakitori sometimes. I cooked some up outside the other night and then the barbecue sat in the rain yesterday.
Our garden is so small, by the way, that cleaning it up is approximately equivalent in time and energy expenditure to tidying up a medium-sized writing desk.

It has a kind of magnetism…those wild firealike colors are really beautiful, It is also beautiful because it’s rotten steel… You know corten steel is one of the most fashionly used materials? Is steel with a controlled rust layer on the outside…it’s really beautiful to see a completely rusted out building, even more if you know it is not damaged at all…

I can not for my life comprehend have that small a garden (even thought I don’t have one at the moment, apartment living as I am).
At the houses I’ve lived in the one with the smallest garden were 2500 square meters, the one around my parents house is about 5500 sq. meters…
But then I’ve heard that buying a lot in Tokyo isn’t the cheapest thing to do… :P

I live in England and we are renound for out small Garden’s. Afterall England is only a small island compared to the likes of the US or Cananda.
However it is not so bad, because smaller gardens that are well looked after are cossier than big garden’s I think. Especially with a few solar lamps and a heater. :-)
