several vintage cars were parked nose in at a small parking area...the only solution was to switch to the wide angle lens, lean back on a grassy bank, and try and squeeze them in the frame...it was a rudely surprising moment though, as I sat on the grass only to have the spikes of several prickly holly leaves, fallen from the backing hedge, poke through the seat of my jeans...the immediate impression was quite a sharp one

this was the swishy model of the group, an old Studebaker
