I think this shot is one of my fav’s from the day. A cold and frosty start and then the sun breaks through the trees just as I line up this shot of a VW jigsaw. It felt like magic.

BTW. All the selective colouring on this shot and the previous ones is done using Silver Efex pro 2 (Pre-Google).

If you like you can catch up with my other shots  from the car cemetery here:

Yet another Decaying split screen VW van caught my eye. This one is complete with it’s own botanic gardens.

Even in this state you can appreciate the iconic shape of a VW van. Some design forms just have staying power to the last gasp.

To Give you some idea of just how long this VW has stood here look at the wing mirror grown into the tree. The arm has rotted away you can still see the impression..
