365 # 31 / 32



First: "my" Karmann Ghia. It may not be much but it's mine. Or something like that...
Next: John Updike died today. Kind of a shock as I grew up reading him and you somehow figure folks like him will always be around.
Finally, regarding this photo a day thing: it can be very hard! I actually thought I would not find something today. On the last leg of my walk I spotted the vibrant red lights that mark a dead end street. They are so mesmerizing. They also have graffiti on them which kind of ruins the effect but from far away you do not see it.

365 # 29/30



No photos from today but I DID take this one yesterday, just in case. I happen to love old cars. I find todays cars to be lacking in aura. Old cars have wonderful colors, amazing designs and I love the typography used in their "logos". I have this dream of going to Cuba just to see all of the architecture and cars. When  I spotted this on the street I was reminded of a car my grandparents had-in green. One of my favorite cars is the Karmann Ghia. So beautiful!
