Every day we share a single photo from our Flickr Pool shot by one of our faithful and talented readers (that’s you!).
Yesterday's post was focused upon an old relic from another era that was located slightly off the beaten path, an RCAF aircraft crashed near Tofino. Today's post will take that notion and feature not just one relic from another era, but two. The first such relic is a Polaroid Land Camera, produced between 1969 and 1971. Although Polaroid stopped producing instant film a few years back, Fuji has filled the void with their own instant film offering, compatible with various Polaroid cameras. A rare camera indeed - so rare in fact, that The Tiger Moth had to have batteries made specifically for the camera. But she did, and was able to take her first photo with the camera since acquiring it, as seen below.
And about the Untitled photograph below, that leads us to the second relic. Somewhere in North Burnaby or perhaps Vancouver-Sunrise (if my google-fu is accurate) there is a 1972 Buick Skylark convertible parked in someone's yard. Looks like a fairly clean specimen too - it is unfortunate that it has become someone's lawn ornament. Better that than a tired, chipped and faded gnome I suppose. No tarp - that's a good sign.
Reminds me a little of the bitchin' Camaro with the T-tops ppb.van found in South Burnaby way back in Daily Flickr Pickr Day 439.
