I spotted this hunched ogre lurking at a local car show. Funny, despite his bent and wizened appearance, I see something of myself in this poor creature . . . . . . . . I wonder why?

Thanks much, K. I've been shooting cars for years - I've made a number of "self portraits" from fenders, hub caps and window glass.

Capn, he's very friendly - I can guarantee you that he'll buy you a drink when he sees you.
