One photo every day: Three Beetles (64/365)

in #onephotoeveryday7 years ago (edited)

I was in the harbour walking, and suddenly I see these nostalgic things side-by-side on the parking lot. You know what I had to do. A Snapshot!

Three in a row? What's the chance of that 😎

Wow, the back in the days beetles still look good in the snapshot. These beetles are still in use in my country nigeria.

Cool, which kind of car in particular is it? I know it by the look, but not sure which exactly are these.

Really? You are not kidding are you? It's a Volkswagen Beetle, a classic among classics. :)

Probably, somewhere near there was an exhibition of "beetles":)

Great picture! Really nice lighting for that shot!

We used to call them punch bugs and whenever you saw one you would punch the person next to you in the arm.

Ohh I love Beetles!!! Three in a row like this is rare to see, great catch! :))

nice photos... between i am a movie sucker read reviews about Splice i like it and downloading it now.. thanks :)

I watched it last night. I wasn't too impressed. Good idea, bad execution. I hope the anime I loaned is better.

Those beetles are called Vultures here in mexico. Lol. Having one of them is still golden, anyway. Sleep well friend.

A very rare chance to see the Classic beauty all lined up in Style !!

Fantastic ! Really looks like old friends

Nice one, the way the picture is shot it also gives a bit of this 70's feeling to it :)

Classic cars....thank you for posting.

Sensational photo.

i really love those cars <3 and yeah your camera for sure too :D hows your health my buddy :D :)

I've had more runny nose and cough than before, so I guess the flu still hasn't gone away. The positive thing is I've had more energy lately. Thanks for asking. :)


I love this the most!
and am glad you're still rockin' on with your 1 pic a day post goal

Yes, there are less and less cars in the world!

"Lazy Daze"

I had a beatle once, not a nice one life this. But i had one and was so proud of it back then :P

Nice condition too. We used to see quite a few but not any longer.

Nice classic cars. Thanks for the pictures :)

I wouldn't probably drive a car like that even if old cars are my favorite but there's something really classic and stylish about them. :D
