I found this old Ford Galaxie 500 at the harbour of the Linköping
Sailingboat Society. It was in very nice shape, and I liked the glow
it caught from the sky. With the sunset and the moon behind it, it
made for a lovely scene.
As far as I can make out it is a 1964 model, but I'm not a car
aficionado.
ps. This car will show up in one or two more photos, stay tuned.
This photo was taken on June 7, 2008 in Linkoping, Ostergotland, SE, using a Canon EOS 40D.

This looks like what I imagine America was like in the sixties :-)
Not only the car, but also the open space.
Very beautiful colours with the night creeping in.

Thanks for the comments!
Amalfia: I agree, it's a big American car that gives that oldies feeling :)

jättebra bild! ps, ringde nästan dig ikväll (inte för att jag har ditt nummer, men jag räknar med att nummerupplysningen har det) för det var så otroligt fin solnedgång när vi for förbi Link... men du kanske såg den ändå, o var ute o tog superfina bilder... :)

Still looks like a starship after all these decades. Deep and wonderful depth of field, Johan. The crescent moon is a bonus. I love the sense of solitariness of this evening.

Mycket trevlig effekt - jag gillar verkligen din "måttliga" användning av hdr. Du har fått fram tonerna snyggt här.

People really like this one! From the sliver of moon (which I find so strange becasue I see the same sliver - really blows my mind how interconnected we all are) to the swirling sunset, the grass and the vintage car with its elegant gas-guzzling lines. I too love the shine on it.
I INVITE you to join this group !!!!!

Real Americana from the North! Looks like it should really be from a 50's rock'n'roll film:
"Drove through the town, drove through the country
Showed 'em how a motor could go
I said "how do you like my triple carburetor?"
And one of them whispered low "

Jag gillar färgerna och ljuset i den här bilden jättemycket. Bilden känns både modern och retro, och den "självlysande" bilen är såå cool!

Looking at this one again, I come to think that the car looks both small and big at the same time :-)
