It was a really nice day today so I took a "photo field trip" to Fort Monroe. I did a self-guided walking tour that I picked up at the Casemate Museum. (If you are interested in history, especially the Civil War, it is definitely worth a trip.) I really enjoyed just wandering around by myself. It was pretty empty there today despite the nice weather so I was able to take pictures without being disturbed and without having to worry about people getting in the shots. Below is a picture I took of a spiral staircase on the side of a white observation tower that was added to the fort during WWII. The metal stairs have rusted and the rust has stained the walls. I like this photograph because of the contrast of white and black along with the streak of rust.

It's hard to tell from the angle of the wall that the rust stain is in fact a rust stain, my first impression was that it was a shadow. I like this as an abstract photo though. The stark white of the background plays well with the spiral of dark stairs.
