S T O P !!!!

one of 39 murals in Chemainus on Vancouver Island, known for its murals.
I saw the car coming around the corner and caught it just as it was approaching the other side with the mural - overexposed to have the foreground appear white ..

    Great picture and great symbolism! Tradition can never be overwhelmed neoterism...History is respected!..

    Who has right of way here?
    These people have never seen such a car
    (VW - Jetta?) before, I guess.
    Well captured.

    modern horsepower meets the classic: a penny for the thoughs of the horses facing the unknow red creature! ; )) it takes the viewer a second to grasp what was done! for a blissful moment he believes in the illusion… ; )) using overexposure to render the foreground white was a great idea and works very well: not only does it look elegant, it also adds a cool painterly touch to the scene! hugs, sabine.

    A very excellent wall painting, which again reflects a glance into history.
    The car drives straight into the past.
    A great moment.

    Une belle composition qui nous montre cette coexistence surprenante de folklore et de modernité!

    Ein Bild der großen Kontraste. Hier stehen sich bildlich 2 Jahrhunderte gegenüber oder als gäbe es die Zeitmaschine, die schon viele Autoren und Filmemacher inspiriert hat, wirklich.

    Das sieht so echt aus, dass man zunächst glaubt, es sei auf der Straße. Super ist das als Foto und bestens von dir in Szene gesetzt. LG Brigitte
