I came across this large and somewhat unsightly block of flats in Harrogate last week and for some reason it immediate reminded me of the side of those massive big cruise ships. Maybe it was just because of the small sailing ship that someone had placed in their window or maybe it was the harshness of the structure. Whatever the reason I decided to capture it with a Dutch angle and then added some texturing before taking the selective colouring option ... overall I think it works? Please view on black for best effect. For Sight and Sound ... what else but Rod Stewart with "Sailing": youtu.be/KCgJXuOqTYY youtu.be/u1v60FITAfY youtu.be/yqs0ZAJngls

The Amphicar is, as you can probably guess simply by the name and its appearance, an amphibious automobile. In the Sixties, the German vehicle was manufactured by the Quandt Group who only made around 4,000 of them meaning that today they are highly sought after novelties.
