Arco-Íris Reloaded
Do calhambeque, bi-bi
Quero conservar o calhambeque
Mas o cadilac finalmente ficou pronto
Lavado e consertado, bem pintado um encanto
Mas o meu coração
Na hora exacta de trocar
Ah!
O calhambeque, bi-bi
Meu coração ficou com o calhambeque

This is a wonderful capture...that pot of plants on top is such a great addition and completes this picture! B-)

What a find. Manufactured wrecks in nature have such eye-catching contrast and you've captured the atmosphere well here.

@tengtan: Thanks for the visit and comment tengtan.
Wow, that's an oldie. Nice shot! Love the plant on the hood! :)

superb image, reminds me of a Walt Disney cartoon with CARS.

@Dimitrios: Thanks Dimitrios.
Yes i have to agree to Dimitrios' comment above it does resemble the cars from the cartoon movie Cars. good shot...

Fogo, que desperdício... Um carro desses é claramente de colecção, ainda por cima com matrícula portuguesa. À falta de melhor uso, serve de vaso para as plantas.
Ao mesmo tempo que é caricata, não deixa de ser uma bela imagem.

I like stuff like this. I have a very similar post named Abandoned Dodge.

@Shuva Brata Deb: Thanks Shuva Brata Deb.
Lovely old car - and I agree - the use of it as a planter is great - did you do that or was it found like that?
11 Jul 2007 11:53am
@Walt: I found thus.
Thanks Walt - glad you liked it!
Wonderful image badala . . . nice work.

I love old rusted cars. They make for such a great subject.
11 Jul 2007 1:16pm
Ha! LOL! Great image. There's something noble about the way it's decomposing.
11 Jul 2007 1:51pm
Thats great. Who knew a car could have such character?
11 Jul 2007 3:15pm
OMG this is one great pic. Reminds me of birds on a water buffalo or something but it really is great and cute! :D
11 Jul 2007 3:20pm
Looks as if the car has become part of the landscape, the flower pot on the fender made me smile.
11 Jul 2007 3:41pm
So cool Badala, excellent, I like oldies and this is great, =)
11 Jul 2007 4:38pm

11 Jul 2007 5:49pm
Very nice shot...this shot should be part of movie "Cars"
11 Jul 2007 5:53pm
A post modern picture! I like the irrevelance seen in it.
11 Jul 2007 6:34pm
Que imagen tan buena y divertida, el pobre coche con el faro torcido figura un guiño muy simpático. ¡Muy guapa!.
Saludos.
11 Jul 2007 7:31pm
Good shot, that old wreck is probably someones dream hotrod project.
11 Jul 2007 8:32pm
Boa foto, o detalhe e a luz estão optimos e dão um realce muito bonito as cores, parabens!

@Pedro Lírio: Obrigada Pedro. Encontrei esta "preciosidade" no caminho, que faço para casa. Um dia não resisti e cliquei o carro.

@Scene by Sharon: Thanks Scene by Sharon.
Wonderful image. The car seems to have blended in and become part of the scenery. It is as though it was a plant or a tree. Nice image!
12 Jul 2007 4:56am

@Susankritha: Thanks.
One of the best car shots I've seen for a long time! I join with all the others, above, in applauding you for bringing this off so well!
13 Jul 2007 1:21am
Já teve melhores dias, isso é certo.
Mas é quase pecado, ter algo assim tão histórico e deixar apodrecer no meio de um quintal.
Captaste muito bem toda a decadência a que o calhambeque chegou.
Gostei do pormenor do vaso em cima do carro. :):)
13 Jul 2007 7:30pm
@Remus: É tudo original Remus. No entanto não está num quintal, mas sim à beira de uma estrada. Só em Portugal. :(
muito boa, gostei principalmente das cores, estão muito boas, será que passou na inspecção?
14 Jul 2007 10:56pm
@pedro alexandre: :)
Devia passar! Tem tanto carácter.
@Eleftheria: :) Thanks Eleftheria!
...àh quanto tempo não via um Anglia! Velhos tempos,tempos de miudo...

Foto muito engraçada!
Acho que já vi esse carro uma vez.
Para o lado dos andreus?

@Miguel Ribeiro: :) Exactamente! Feliz 2010.
Goooosto do teu calhambeque bip bip!! O pormenor do vaso dá-lhe um ar divertido e prazenteiro. Isto é que é saber envelhecer :):)
