deep in it..

Posted by amy (Nanaimo, BC, Canada) on 22 January 2008 in Transportation and Portfolio.

This is actually an old (duh) Model T or A? that we use as a flower box in our front yard. The only thing I did to this was adjusted the curves a titch and desaturated a wee bit.

You can view my gallery of images and calendar for sale at: cute but stupid . I'm slowly adding more to the site and if there is something in my portfolio you would like to purchase but is not available on my site just contact me and I'll make it available.

I appreciate all visits and comments and thank you always... ;-)

A pleasing image, Amy. That snow falling is wonderful. I really like the idea of using an old car as a flower box.

@DaveB: I knew I'd get a comment like this!! LOL There was no way to save this old relic... ;-( But it is treated with great respect as it's festooned with many beautiful flowers every summer ;-)

A novel idea for a flower box I must say, I bet it looks amazing when the flowers are in bloom.

It must be cool to have such an innovative flower box, better than sending it the car graveyard. I like the little snow flakes in the shot, nice one.

I guess you are the Snow Queen now. Very nice shot.

The snow has stopped here and cold weather moved in.
