El Cadamino

The owner says this is not a funeral procession Flower Car as most people would have you believe.  It’s a home-built Cadillac pick up truck, an El Cadamino!  This ’53-based custom has always been tucked away in the back corner of Big M Salvage, but this time things around it were re-arranged and I could finally shoot it.  Sad it’s in such ratty shape, ‘cuz it really is unusual.  This is a 160 second exposure, in deep shade, with natural LED light down the side and on the ground, from the front and rear.
