COCOA BEACH VW CLASSIC ON 35MM


We couldn't have asked for better weather for the Cocoa Beach VW Classic. After enduring searing temperatures earlier in the week, it cooled off to a perfect temperature for this great little VW show, hosted by Juice N Java Cafe. This year featured live pin-striping and tons of local merchants. The road next to the parking lot was closed off to add more room for all the great local VWs this town has. I had another 35mm camera that was passed onto me to test out, a Minolta XG-A, so I was very excited. Thanks very much for that, Fred and Lisa!








I really enjoyed this rat rod beetle. The more you look at it, the more funny details you see. I love it when you can tell the owner is simply having fun building a project without even talking.









This little doggie was tired... didn't even notice me peaking in.







 











Many thanks to Dave and the Aircooled321 guys for making this event happen year after year! And thanks to the Juice N Java Cafe and City of Cocoa for hosting all of us, it's a unique and enjoyable setting. The merchants and cafe are top notch. See you next year!


Camera used: Minolta XGA, 50mm f/2
