Buick 8 Better Wait


My third attempt writing about this photo. Previously, I found myself getting bogged down in describing every detail. I tend to ramble and lose focus at times, leading me astray from the original idea or question posed. Step back, pause, and try again. To me it looks like two separate images slapped together -- and I like that. On the left a large circle and a feeling of open space. To the right unyielding lines top to bottom. It’s all about the lines. They even exist in the headlight, but with new pattern and direction. Add to that the standouts against the chrome and black on either side: the punch of the yellow tinged dome and the red “Buick 8” branded on the grille.
