Nelson's Fleet

Nelson Mandela and Ford Focus

A wall portrait of Nelson Mandela that's been on Cherokee Street for a couple of years. A Ford Focus is parked next to it. I liked the non-sequitur the two make, the colors and the strong feeling of perspective.

Indeed a very nice combination in colors and composition.

I agree with you, the car and portrait come together in a surprising way. The combination gives a sense of size and perspective.

Good show here, I agree. btw Shouldn't you be packing?????

Quite a contrast between the two!

They do look good (? or interesting?) together, although I'll be damned if I can figure out why.

It's a different composition. I would probably just have focused on the wall portrait.

Seeing Nelson Mandela murals around the world makes me happy Bob :)
