Today I went to a flea market held in a small village, with family and blessed by fine weather. One of the first things I saw was a Messerschmitt!
Well, unfortunately not one of the earlier models for which most of you had probably hoped for when you opened this thread
However, this little post WW-II gem was in perfect condition and certainly worth a shot or two (for 3D). My apologies to those without red-cyan glasses, as the following pics are going to be anaglyphs:
#1
#2
#3
After WW-II Willi Messerschmitt had to take to different fields of work and one of his all time classics certainly is this tandem two-seater with two-stroke engine in the back. Not many left on our streets these days.
Not far away an other icon of German ingenuity showed up:
#4
An old Lanz Bulldog tractor. It was the workhorse of the German farmer, starting of somewhere in the 1930's if I am not mistaken. Today this thing is a 'cult' object. To start it's single zylinder Diesel one has to first place a gas/propane torch somewhere in the engine room for several minutes, to get things warmed up! Running full throttle at 400rpm it certainly gets attention
At an other location still, there was a small collection of old bikes in different states of ongoing restoration or abuse to be seen. I had to take a 3D-set of this slender beauty:
#5
It is a vintage NSU 'Quickly' motor-assisted bicycle of unknown (to me) age. If not power, there are at least some classic lines to it.
Everyone who had no 3D-glasses at hand, but got here nevertheless, needs to be rewarded I think. So, here is the last photo, which I took on our way back through the open car window:
#6
A male Kestrel (Falco tinnunculus) taking a rest on the powerline aside the street.
I hope the anaglyphs worked for most of you?! After downsizing I had to compress them further to meet the gallery standards. With that there were unfortunately some artifacts introduced.
