Photographer David Graham always seems to be in the right place at the right time to record the odd and the offbeat in our daily world. In all four of his pictures owned by the Convention Center, he demonstrates his special eye for finding quirky situations whose components are out of scale or out of place.
As seen here, perhaps only David Graham would have the luck to pass by a mural of a wreck being towed, only to find a real crashed car resting beneath it. To the artist, Crashed Car was an instance of "glorious happenstance."
Fun oddities such as this are paramount in his other works: Disassembling 707; Mayflower; and Seemsville, PA.
