Not my usual kind of photo, but I was up early this morning, doing something in the kitchen, and all of a sudden there was a light as if the buildings across the way had been lit on fire. I figured I should take a snap and find it interesting …
The moment only lasted about 90 seconds or so, but that old star lit it up nice out there.
Thanks for looking.

Finally, a thread I can post this one I shot on M4/3 on 20 November!

I took this a few years ago, apologies for the quality as it's scanned from a 4x6 print.

Somehow my reply was lost in the ether... really like the contrast between teh sunset and the bleak suburban landscape in the first. Of course, the little bug is really sweet!

LOL! My next door neighbors might take umbrage at being referred to as "bleak suburban landscape", Mark!
It's the view out the back of the condo, across the street. A two-story apartment building and a church's parking lot ...
The fence usually blocks it from being visually intrusive.

Hahaha! No offense meant! But have to admit though, it's hard to romanticize a modern existential landscape like that! 
I can romanticize the little bug photo though... put myself inside it and make a whole beautiful moment around it!

Yes, the "Bug Sunrise" is quite lovely. Wish I had such nice landscape to look out at here ... Oh well, I'll make do. ;-)
Hope you had a great holiday weekend, Mark!

Thanks Godfrey! You too! Survived the "holiday" part of the weekend, then got away to shoot photos with my girlfriend which was really nice.

The little Bug was my first car, and even after I had a 'proper car' I kept her. This trip was one of the last long drives I had in her, from East Anglia at midnight to Wales at dawn, followed by an 'English breakfast' (eggs, bacon, sausages and mushrooms–all fried)
I had her for nearly 18 years, did nearly 200,000 miles on the original engine (oil changes every 3000) only my third child and the practicalities of transporting a large family forced the sale.
The car never failed me once, always started ran well, and gave me an immense feeling of man and machine; it was however cold in the winter, frozen windows looking out of icy portholes, slightly noisy–I loved it.

Lovely photos all, folks!
We had a bug when I was a kid--actually several over the years--and I remember my mother cramming about 9 kids into it one evening; late after ice skating and beside the four of us, there were some other kids whose parents expected them to walk home. Not usually a big deal but the winter weather had turned ugly so Mom wouldn't let them walk.
