Where it all began

Ford developed the modern production line for automobiles. Thanks to him, cars became the most efficient means of transportation. I hope you've enjoyed this series of old-timers. Photo taken in February 2004.

Antique Benz

An old-timer Mercedes was also on display. She is definitely well-cared for. Photo taken in February 2004.

Red beauty

My local old-timer expert Louis LaVache has advised me this is a 1920s Alfa Romeo. It was my favorite car on display, but that probably has to do with the color more than anything else! Photo taken in February 2004.

Blue roadster

Another old-timer from the collection in Martigny. According to the my local expert, Louis LaVache, this is a Bugatti. Photo taken in February 2004.

Yellow Rolls

I don't know much about cars, but here's a look at an "older" model Rolls Royce. You can see this one inside the Pierre Gianadda Museum in Martigny, Switzerland. They have a whole collection of old-timers. And they all really run too! Photo taken in February 2004.

Streets of Geneva

A street scene from Geneva, Switzerland. I used a grain effect on this one. I rather like the effect, especially coupled with the black and white. Photo taken in February 2003.

Golden wings

The Brunswick Monument is a memorial to the Duke of Brunswick who died in Geneva in 1873. He left his fortune to the city on the condition that they erect him a monument even more beautiful than that of the Scaligeri family in Verona. I think the golden-winged angels fit the bill. Photo taken in February 2004.

Clocktower doorway

A modest wooden doorway contrasted against a beautiful stone edifice. Photo taken in Geneva, February 2004.

Spire

A view of the spire of Saint Pierre's. It's a wonderful church to visit if you're ever in Geneva. Photo taken in February 2004.

Magnificent columns

The Cathedral Saint Pierre is a Gothic beauty in the heart of Geneva, Switzerland. It was originally a Catholic church but was converted during the reformation, you can even see Calvin's chair inside. Photo taken in February 2004.

Bloom with bonus

A small bloom on the Sweet William begins to peek out. And it seems I'm not the only one who enjoys this delicate, beautiful flower! Photo from the garden in Jackson, April 2011.
