  2. Neat photo! I just may have to try the monochrome theme soon - I need to learn Photoshop a bit better before attempting it.

  7. Bilar är bilar. Jag gillar det. Måste erkänna att jag lärde mej ngt nytt. Fick googla....Jag har alltid trott att det var två skilda bilmärken med GM som ägare. Kul att lära nytt och bilen passar verkligen i svart/vitt! Hälsningar!

  9. ahhh, dette bildet var innmari tøft!!! Likte godt vinkelen du har brukt her.

    Ja, litt fælt å si det på denne måten men gleder meg også litt til de små blir litt større så vi kan reise litt mer :)

  15. Oh my father would love this. Opel is the only car worth driving in his opinion. It wouldn't surprise me if he used to own this particular model too.
    This one looks a bit sad though. Needs some cheering up ;-)
