Classic VW Microbus - Richard Reeve

I always wanted my parents to get one of these. If they come back, perhaps... Wonderful shot Richard. I love the selective coloring! l/f!
Richard Reeve replied:
Thank you, Meg. I wanted to make sure the bus stood out from the background. This one is a beautiful example.
