Many thanks Ricardson. I was still learning (I'm a slow learner :-) ) about WB (and doF...) at that time, so this image, as much as I like it, could look different and maybe better. I'm satisfied with the capture of that moment though. And apparently LR3 doesn't allow to develop this (old) image all over...

This is great- lots of texture, different elements (wood, steel) and a look that only weathering can make. Makes the viewer want to touch the image.
a door?

Photo was taken during a work trip to Adelaide in Australia.
After dinner, I've decided to go for a drive and 'visit' Adelaide as I'll be flying out straight after work is done, there is no time to see Adelaide at all.
Got my camera with me, asked the hotel concierge of a general direction and off I go in the rental car heading towards Port Adelaide.
Was looking for a harbour/ship yard site.. however after circling around for approximately one and half hour I came across a row of cargo trains that has been griffitied on. They looked really vivid!!
I was over joyed with the find and quickly set up the camera on the tripod and manually flashed the cargo train multiple times.. by pressing the flash test button... as I've only 1 flash and I really needed a lot of light to light up the train without the sky coming in too strong.
I thought this picture fits the theme of the contest, as the normally dull cargo train is coated in a vivid orange paint before street artists added their own touches to it - hence "Color Me Bold".
