Motors

 When you have a gazillion photos in your archive and put "motor" in the search bar, you end up with 467 photos.  Some bring back fond memories.  Others, "where the heck was that?"  And still others, "why the heck did I take that picture?" and "why didn't I delete it?"

So many times on my visits to Africa, I think "These people live differently than I do."


People in Key West  are different, too.


I remember this.  Several years ago there was a motorcycle parade in Naples.  Must have been a thousand participants.  These police officers were in a tight pack, so I could isolate them from the masses. 


OK.  This is the kind of thing that the City Daily Photo theme of "Motors" for February 2025 
expected me to show today, so here it is.


This one brings back smiles.  I was in Normandy near a D-Day museum, which inevitably brings on sober emotions.  But, down the street a "deux chavaux" club was gathering with their very special cars.

This is quite close to where I live in the winter.  The cars they put out front are changed out frequently.  I must have been feeling arty when I captured this one in black-and-white.

Ha ha, I ask myself these questions most every day.

Jack, you found some great "motor" photos in your archives. I was most captivated by your last b&w photo. My Dad had a series of late 1950s and early 1960s Ford Thunderbirds like the one in your picture. He had a close friend who was a Ford dealer.
