i've only seen one or two other vw bugs in uganda. they were in little better shape than this one, but still running. a guy at the the car wash - behind the white car at left - started calling, "hey muzungu! it's for sale!"
i've been envying some other photographers online recently, and think i may need to learn some more photoshop. so this was shot in raw, but i still didn't do too much to it. besides, photojournalists are supposed to stay far away from photoshop.
this was the first snap i took of the car and then i moved around a lot finding better perspectives. even after looking at them on the puter i didn't like this one and was thinking of cropping it. but then it gradually grew on me to become my favorite.
for the most part, i don't like to crop images. i paid a lot for those 8,200,000 pixels; i wanna use them all! making square images is the exception.
i give notes and commentary on all of my photos in the comments section. click thegreenpost title to show that photo with my comments below. please add your own comments or critiques and thanks for checking in! -phil
