A pair of my daughter's old sneakers hanging from the rearview mirror of a VW Bug (old style) that is an advertisement for Grabill Bank (which is the reason for the $10 bill on the car). If you look closely, there is a beetle between the mirror and the shoes - a beetle on the beetle.

I wondered where this went - quite liked it during voting. And yeah, that looks like some sort of odd artifact rather than an edited feature. Sorry about the DQ, but I do wonder how the artifact got created. Still a lovely shot!
Thanks for all the nice comments. Don't I wish I could edit good enough to add a texture feature from the horizontal trim through the shoe, door hinge, and shoelace! Repeated the editing steps, and could not reproduce the added feature.
Not too sure about the corner white tape looking lines but loved the color contrast and miror reflection. Little red dot on car a curiosity. First time I give high score for my 1st rated this challenge. 7 and hoping the others are just as good as yours. Thanks.
Maybe the reference is lost on me, but what does the $10 bill have to do with this shot? It seems out of place and distracting. Otherwise, it's a nice shot.
