Volkswagen Beetle
With this car I learned to drive in the early 1970s. At that time, two thirds, if not three quarters, of all cars on the roads of my home country, Germany, were still VW Beetles. At the same time, however, the decline of this successful model was already beginning. In 1974, the great era of the Volkswagen Golf began, which finally replaced the Beetle as the world's best-selling car in 2002. de.wikipedia.org/wiki/VW_K%C3%A4fer
The owner of this car is a good friend. He believes the car was the private car of a famous Danish actress that became the country's first lady in the 60s. Full of charm :-)
I captured this iconic VW image whilst it was parked up overnight and as the morning sun began to rise on the island of Ibiza.

The license plate has been altered for privacy. This one has California plates (which have been altered for privacy.) I wonder if the owner is simply visiting or has moved out to Arizona where this photo was taken.
A memory of a great time. I drove exactly this VW Golf GTI car in the late 70s, back in 1978 it was a rocket, it was awesome at that time!

Eine Erinnerung an eine tolle Zeit. Genau diesen VW Golf GTI bin ich Ende der 70er Jahre gefahren, damals 1978 war das eine Rakete, damals der Hammer!

1960's HUSKY toy VW Pick up. Just 21 mm wide. Battered and chewed. From my very oldest toy box.
A rubbish attempt at Macro Mondays today. The challenge this week is a centre composed, square format, black and white shot. I don't like black and white. The only time I do it is when the colour shot is crap and won't work. Somehow the novelty of converting to black and white makes things look better when all else fails. But I don't get it. Those of us of a certain era were brought up on black and white TVs and three channels. When colour TVs came out we (or our parents) all dashed out and bought one so we could see things properly in full colour. If black and white photography is supposed to be so cool, how come none of us...repeat none of us....go and turn the colour down on our TVs so it is black and white and sit down to watch Strictly in monochrome, cooing, "Wow, doesn't that look good?" Eh?
