Arms Break, Vases don’t. Both a certain car from my past and I disagree slightly with this, but hey! Who am I to judge? At least the vase made it through and vases, after all, are important. This image was created by the professional photographer/ retouch artist Erik Johansson. More of his work will probably show up on this site in the future, but his portfolio is worth a look at http://erikjohanssonphoto.com.
