The Buggy Project

Most people who know me have already seen these photos, but I decided I needed to share them with you guys too.  I call this collection The Buggy Project.  The day I found this gem of a junkyard was one of the best ever... it was just a typical spring day, doing a photoshoot for a music artist in North Georgia.  We had spotted a couple buggies out front of a shack the day earlier and decided we needed to go back to do a shoot in front of them.  This, in and of itself, was exciting to me... but once we went back and had done several photos in the front, I serendipitously stumbled upon an entire buggy graveyard behind the shack.  I hadn't noticed it at first because it was shrouded by trees and brush, but once I caught a brief glimpse of the buried treasure, I investigated further.  Lo and behold, I found dozens of brightly colored old VW Beetles and the like, completely dilapidated, with trees growing up through them and vines covering their bodies.  It was breathtaking.  I did a happy dance, went picture crazy... and this is what came out of it...
