Very nice beetle, very smooth color.

nice indeed, I have had 2 bugs. I drove my volkswagon van from 1968 till 2003 when i left for India. I miss my volkswagons, they are such fun!

A very recognizable car, even with this relatively small crop. I like the panoramic-like reflection on the bumper. Thanks for sharing and welcome to TL.

Hey my friend, you here too ?
Welcome with TE's "sister" !
I had one too, a beetle, same perspective, but didn't post it, wasn't good enough.
I had "yours" in mind, so, this one is great, very nice light too !

Was about time to get your ass here.. ;)))
Wonderful crop Carlos bringing a "sexy" piece of these amazing vehicles to us..These cars have a very special charm for their look and for all the other reasons..Excelent image!

Welcome to TL Carlos. As a "tribute to 'him'" as you said at your note, I prepare a special WS for your shot and "bug"! Check it out!

I love these close crops of car details. Make it a lot more intresting that just a whole car. These cars are just great we call them "bubla - bubels" cause of there shape. They are just so charming, always wanted to have one...maybe i should get my drivers license first though hehe.

Really liked Xalkida made too. Great shot Carlos.

Nice detail of this beetle. The fender, the ventilation placement and the light blinker, indicate a model of first halv of sixties ... I think...

Eu também Carlos, adoro o fusquinha (como nos o chamamos no Brasil) e la esse carro ainda faz milagres !
Adoro também as cores suaves de todas as suas fotos. Sem exagêros, so a imagem fala por ela mesma. Ainda vou comentar a das camas na areia da praia...adorei também!

Otima perspectiva do carrinho mais famoso do mundo... heheh, gostei muito e fiz um workshop, espero que goste !

Carlos,

I too am rather fond of the old VW bugs. I would guess late 1950's or very early 1960's model, right? I like the way you chose to display the leftfront portion.

God's best,

Tim

Le temps passe ! j'ai l'impression que c'était hier en voyant cette voiture.
Une composition très bien cadrée, j'aime le reflet sur le pare-choc.
Une photographie très bien faite.
Very well done Carlos.

Well seen, Carlos. The chrome and the headlight are the true eye catchers here. The excellent curve of the fender makes this a well known car, you captured just the essence of it. TFS.

Tres belle composition...détails clairs et précis. Photo comme je les aimes
Merci pour le partage

This brings back fond memories of my 1963 baby blue VW convertible I drove for many, many years. It is still in the family and kept in showroom quality! I love the way you have cropped the classic so that it is immediately recognized. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.... :O)

Well i love VW too. I got plenty pic of my bus when going arround and i posted on Travelling with Bus
and some in here.

Olá Carlos, que bom que gosta também de detalhes, este está ótimo.
O nosso velho fusca, ainda roda muito deles por aqui. Vou verificar, acho que tenho algum trabalho com este fusca, se achar posto.
Parabens pela fotografia, perfeita nas cores e detalhes.
