    My mum used to have one of these in the seventies…I used to sit in the ‘boot’ as a kiddie. Thanks for the memory :)

    Excellent lighting and reflections Jane. Love how the straight lens of the garage door are picked up and move with the curves of the car door. Lovely low angle and the cropping of part of the car works very will in my opinion.
