As well as sailing yachts and tall ships, we can enjoy displays of beautiful old cars and bikes and even Bleriot's airplane - all displayed against backdrops of massively enlarged old photographs. Don't you just love the bathers.(click either photo to enlarge)
Tomorrow - do come back and see what car this is - maybe an enthusiast knows already?
That guy on the rail is striking quite a pose!
ReplyDeleteEck they were so dressed up in those days!
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to believe they could stay afloat.
ReplyDeleteI noticed the same guy Sharon pointed out. What a pose!
ReplyDeleteThis is great, Jilly. Love it.
Like the old photo. Wonder if our digital pics would be able to be blown up that size without turning into pixels.
ReplyDeleteDifficult to guess the car exactly, but I would guess a Daimler or a De Dion Bouton
Oh Jilly,
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the bathers. These old photos are just the best. I wish I could be there and inspect each one closely.
