Description
This image is of a 1949 Plymouth Schooner Hood Ornament on a 1949 Plymouth automobile. I was taking pictures of it in a parking lot when the owner appeared. He was very nice and let me continue my work. He is in the process of restoring this vintage car. It is a beauty but I was really mesmerized by the hood ornament. I had not seen a fancy one such as this. The schooner is silver but I caught the sun's reflection in the sails which gives the schooner and its reflection a look of gold. It was early evening when I was taking pictures and was able to frame the hood in front of a black car that was parked nearby to keep the focus on my subject. The black background sets off the beauty of the front of the car. photograph copyright Renee Trenholm

Hi Renee, I'm making a revisit to this under appreciated, futuristic rendition of this vintage hood ornament. I Love the long sleek lines and golden illumination presented here—Designed decades ahead of its time… L&F
