 There is nothing Californians love more than advocating causes -- the more politically correct the better, and this couple is covering a lot of territory. From the paint job on their car we can ascertain that they are patriotic, love dolphins, want to Heal the Ocean, want to Reclaim our Creeks, and and want to free the nation from dependency on fossil fuel, all of which are laudable goals. (That "Free in '33" is really "Fossil Free in '33", but I had to cut part of the motto off to get the square crop.) They also have a sticker by the gas tank telling us that this vehicle runs on bio-diesel fuel, so they are putting their money where their mouth is. At any rate, they didn't seem to mind having their picture taken.

This is a cool capture. No one really has any causes to fight for here so it's fun to see what goes on in other parts of the country. Good for them with the biodiesel. I thought it was fun that they waved at you!

Great story and I guess that if you have opinions and beliefs that this is as good a way as any to express them (I think you may have also missed out on save the tarantula judging by the guys chin!)

Haha, nice capture, I was confused what "free by 33" meant, it makes more sense that it had the word fossil in front, great processing!

That guy sure seems laid back with the handwave - nice job capturing it in motion.

Nice emotive candid shot here, with a strong message to go with it.....

Very nice - I love the colors and the movement of the moment. Good story, too.

Makes me think of that movie "Who Killed the Electric Car?" I like that you captured the car in motion, and the casual wave of the driver. A neat shot-- I wonder what people will think of it in 2033? (Sorry, I typed 1933 earlier!)
