Spotted today... In mid-winter...

[Sherlock]

Here in Calgary, where we are known for wild temperature swings in winter (from cold to warm, back to cold, etc...). We are currently enjoying a warm stretch of winter, and I spotted this vintage machine out and about today...

I believe it's a BMW R75, and I do love those background shadows... :thumbsup:

Sherlock;

You say you left southern Ontario for Calgary.
I have friends who now live in your town and wish they were back in Ontario.
Now , if you can take pictures like those in this province, why aren't you here?
I'm sure we could muster up enough work for you to keep you busy and employed gracefully.
Think it over!

We need more quality people.

that's an old bimmer isn't it?

 

[Sherlock]

You're far too kind Basil...

And Dave... I really do love Calgary, it's my hometown amongst other things, and those wide open spaces of the prairies, the foothills and mountains, nothing like it in Ontario... But thanks for the kind offer... :cowboy:

And I believe I did say it's a BMW, I think an R75...

 

[DNK]

I know it's a BMW ,but not keen on the history. just wondering if it is an old style

Hard to tell, I think BMW made that same model for about 85 years. :laugh:

James,
I agree that the shadows on the background wall make that photo extra special, but I often enjoy perusing your latest work on Flickr as well.

 

[Sherlock]

Thanks Dave...

And Anthony, photos of me are quite rare, but I do photograph other people lots... LOL

Although apparently I'm getting known around Calgary at least a little, I was at an event recently (with my camera in tow) and as I passed by one young lady she asked me if I was Sherlock77 (my Flickr account name), I still don't know how she made the connection... Anyway she did tell me that she loved my event photos... LOL
