Been traveling and took some shots while being stuck in traffic.
Kind of sustainability as well I guess, if you still use things even if they are a bit battered. Then again, looking at the traffic, any vehicle looks probably like that after 7 days.

Reiste umher und machte bei Staus einige Aufnahmen.
Sachen weiter zu nutzen, selbst wenn sie etwas verbeult sind, ist sicher auch eine Art Nachhaltigkeit. Wobei bei diesem Verkehr wohl jedes Fahrzeug nach 7 Tagen so aussieht.
