Moon craters?
Title:  Moon craters?
Description:  With a telephoto shot, the pits look huge but in reality about a 1/2' max depth. So, if a rail is full of pits, does that make it "pitiful"???

One of the larger pits
Title:  One of the larger pits
Description:  With a telephoto lens, this one seems huge. What is more disturbing though are the seemingly cracked areas surrounding the pit, possibly ready to give rise to an even larger pit.
