Impala

My opinion is they stopped to make cars in the seventies. Approaching the end of the seventies "carmakers" started to be just "vehiclemakers". so far so good and we have excellent vehicles nowadays, but no cars! 1974 so the end of the BMW 2002, the precursor of modern sport sedans and the last of the "chrome" generation. 1974 is the birth year of the Golf GTI, an other clever sport concept that was a pleasure to drive, unfortunately the Golf II ended the legend. In the US do you remember the golden age of the Corvette C3 and its participation the the 24 hours race of Le Mans?
Anyway, this front belongs to an older legend, a black Impala with her chromes shining in the sun.

The Hunters' association

The front of the local hunters' association in a small village close to Seferihisar (Izmir). The small building is used as a coffee-shop as well.

Portrait

This is not really street for where he lives the sea and the sky take a much more important place. He has seen more sunny days that the whole population of Scandinavia and burned his skin under more suns than the charters full of tourists have ever seen. I am not sure he cares about Obama or Erdoğan either.

Staircase

The staircase of an old multi storey parking house. The light plays curves on the rugged and rough concrete walls and floor.

Turkish Coffee break

Telling someone's fortune in coffee dregs is an art and a pleasant custom in Turkey. Still not every woman is fluent in the art of reading the signs left by the coffee in the cup and the plate. It is more a matter of reading and interpreting the the cracks and shapes than of any sort of miraculous divination. Enjoy your coffee break.

Autumn Colours

In most temperate climates Autumn shows her flamboyant and soon falling leaves to announce the imminent venue of Winter. Her we are nowhere close to see snowy days and most of our trees are evergreen. But houses windows and shops fronts exhibits drying and dried vegetables to be use in the wintertime to prepare delicious meals. Here are some of our autumnal colours.

The Schuco Studio 1050

She was once a kid's dream, with its differential transmission, steering wheel and spring propulsion it was an amazement to watch her especially on slippy floors. This one is a replica but with her 30 years she is already an old timer and time left his marks on her. Witness of a past when toys were still hand made and run without batteries.
