Cars!


Hi, I've done this to attend this week challenge at Three Muses: Automobile.

The photo was taken from a Kombi by Magnum Photo Agency crew when they were going to Brasília to cover its inauguration in 1960.

The highlighted car is a Chevy Bel Air 1957.

There's a letter in the background which was written by our visionary president at the time: Juscelino Kubitschek. It's a farewell letter written when he was leaving the government.

  7. Christine, you have surpassed yourself my friend, because this is gorgeous and gives the impression of going down that long road at speed. Love the colours and the composition and the perspective too. You deserve a standing ovation from my corner.
