Description

War, World War II. It sounds scary, even now. Many documental movies, many books and photos about WW-II,
but many deaths, memories, destroyed cities and souls also.
More than 60 years past the War, but we still can find it's signs, they are like ghosts, reminding us about
those terrible days.
At one of the many villages in Russia I found this car, forgotten in the meadow, surrounded by grass.
People told me, that this car stands here very long time, since War ends. I found the model of this car,
it was Opel 1937 year of manufacturing, with german signs on it.
It is clear, that this car was leaved by german soldiers during the war, and maybe it was car of somebody
from command center, important persons.
Things like cars, tanks, weapons from WW-II are still being find everywhere in Russia, so many battles were
there...
This things like wounds of the country, of the ground. But time passes, wounds are healing. We still
remembering those scary days, when we see "ghosts" from that time...

Cool photo! Cool not because of any kind of genius perspective or illumination… No! Cool, because it reproduces us the soul of car, if I may say so. Nevertheless in those times car-makers still weren’t trying to keep the laws of aerodynamics in that extent that they do now. Automobiles were the luxury, so they were more heartfelt. Even military cars! That’s why I like this photo!
