"Desert Thunder"...


This is a photograph I've been wanting to create for quite some time. Looking at the details, you'll see a 1955 Ford Thunderbird in the desert with a thunderstorm brewing in the background.

This is actually a composite. The '55 T-bird is actually a matchbox car (1:43 scale). The background is a photograph I made near New Mexico in the early 90's. I've placed this in the "still life" category, which is an area which I hope to have time to continue being creative. Comments welcome!

Details: Matchbox Dinky 1955 Thunderbird, Coca-Cola DYG08/B Die Cast 1:43.
Photo # KS5_9539m1. June/2014.

Oh my goodness, this is amazing, Kelly!
I actually read this twice to make sure I understood correctly (Matchbox car). Truly, you did a superb job on this, and I absolutely love it!
