Railroad Track Rusting, 2005
I just discovered an interesting photo challenge called Photo Friday. Each week there is a new theme, and anyone can post a photo relating to it. This is my first entry, the theme is orange. It is a rusting piece of a railroad track in a dump that is falling into the ocean in Kauai, called "glass beach". It is fascinating to see all the deteriorating materials as they meet with the sea. Instead of sand, the whole beach is made up of tiny fragments of tumbled glass, which comes from bottles in the dump being ground up with the waves. Not a place to build a sandcastle, but fun to poke around in, nonetheless.
