Off Roadin'

Some people forget just how rugged older cars were. They were built for a country that had very few roads and even fewer repair shops. Everything was made to be fixed with a ball of twine and a hammer. Even though vintage cars is one of my lifelong passions, I can never completely trust myself to id cars made before 1930, so any suggestions would be welcome. Whatever brand forged this one, it seems to be all decked out: it has a sun visor, a fog lamp and off road tyres. This photo was most likely taken in southern Alberta, perhaps near Drumheller.

A villa on the water.

Sometimes, black and white can make water look spectacular. Maybe it was taken in a low lying boat, or it could be on a shore bank. Either way, They got a good perspective. I'm no architect, but the buildings don't look north american. It could just be a style. Wherever it is, It looks like a wonderful place to relax.
This is part of an eBay lot of 300 photos. To see others from that collection, click the "300" tag.

Dinos!!


Rawr!
This photo was picked up at a local flea market a few months ago. The tree T-rexes seem to have come from the same mould and are all in various stages of completion. Someone must have put a lot of effort into these. It could have been just a little kid, but it feels more composed than that, showing of all the angles of the beasts. There was another photo of them in the bin, but I foolishly left it there, where it has found another owner.
