Here's the car in her faded, rusty, yet still grand self. Oh, it's a Lincoln. My mom had one, but not nearly so classy as this.

It is so sad when beauty like this is just left to decay!

Too bad they don't make 'em like this anymore. That's a lot of metal.

It's a strong shot Otto - love that redish tone and the offsetting of the car.

This is a good view of the Lincoln. I still am impressed with the hood ornament that looks like a sighting device from a gun. Protruding hood ornaments are a source of owner pride - at least that's how I felt with an old Mercedes I once owned. I liked seeing the three-pointed star out front as I drove down the road!

This series is really wonderful and I am enjoying it very much. The tones/colours are great and so fitting and I like the way the windshield is slightly dark, and the woods behind even darker.

looks like it's emtombed in a crusty layer of crystal. nicely done, otto.

I love how the hood is drooping to the left, it adds a hint of melancholy to the image.

Such a beauty, Otto. This place looks like a real find.

Nice subtle tones here. I'm a fan of images of nature taking over wrecked cars. This is a nice example.
