Comment by benee:
I love that this "smoke break" is with a pipe - a neat juxtaposition of the stereotypical "scholarly pipe" with a war zone. Nice framing as well.

Oh, I love the old Beetles (almost bought a new shape beetle but saw sense and got my ickle Brabus). I used to sell Beetles and MG's and think the best I owned was the 2002, never found a split screen though :(

I do like the crop you chose here and whilst the reflection is great if the car had been a new shape Beetle it would have been sooo much better.

A really well chosen moment to shoot him (oops that was a pun). Everything seems to fit together as if it were placed there by you.

Am sure there are lots of stories to be had from this single image - nice work ;)

This looks like a very cool car. The perspective adds interest and makes me want to see the rest of the care. The b&w definitely goes along with the age of the car.
