Reminds me of my childhood when my dad, mom, my two brothers and me crowded into my dad's Volkswagen Beetle. Congrats on your challenge win!

Behind The Lens

Location

Taken in my brother-in-law's garden. The car was ready to take my niece to the wedding..

Time

It was a September day around 11 in the morning

Lighting

The lighting is natural but not with direct sun. The car was in dim light

Equipment

I used a Nikon Coolpix bridge camera without flash.

Inspiration

The car was beautiful. The model was similar to that of a friend of mine when we were kids and we had a lot of fun with the Volkswagen. Furthermore, the color was really beautiful and original.

Editing

I improved the light, shadows and contrast. But of course I cut the image as you see it. because the original was taken almost whole.

In my camera bag

Nikon d5600 17/55 lens from Tamron and a Nikon 55/300. K&F kickstand + a JOBY Kit GorillaPod 3K

Feedback

Try to personalize the photo by emphasizing the details also using the cut.
