"In a street photograph there’s usually a story, but in the most effective street photography the meaning of the story isn’t entirely clear. Instead of handing you an answer the picture raises a question and gives you a sensation you can’t quite put your finger on." ...RSL

My Dream!

The image was made 10 years ago...but to a car  of that vintage and condition... 10 years  may as well be a week.

I shot the photograph of my interminable walks to and office i had three miles closer to the big town...on a street which held so many wonderful surprises  that the trip took me probably five times as long as it would have taken most anyone not taking advantage of all the "sights"

And without all the electronic stuff!

Nice shot, by the way, Michael.

I dread the idea of an Electric Vehicle Mandate.

Thank you.
