 A BMW Isetta from 1955 - a classic car photographed at the BMW museum in Munich.

It was a much beloved car during the years of German economic miracle. Because of it's unique rotund shape it had the nickname "Knutschkugel" - which means "a globe to smooch"

Thank you for this ribbon!
I also noticed it was the first time that the average given by participants was higher than the average by non-participants (whatever that means)

And it is funny that just at the previous challenge (Out of Season) I earned a brown ribbon ;-)

like the low angle and the capture of the lighting works well to capture this fun little car.

Knutschkugel - Smoochbowl?
The wide angle shot makes it look even more round than it actually is, very fitting.
