The story behind My Lady of the Smile

One of my favorite subjects has always been abandoned cars.
That day I was traveling headed Austin when I saw a crashed car abandoned along the way. If I remember well it was an old Plymouth, no clue about what's happening to the driver.
I thought it's weird, he had have traveled from New Orleans till crash on this tree... and with the first shot, I saw her.
She was laying on the dashboard, under the windscreen. She seemed unharmed but stained with blood (you have to look at the picture very carefully)
As I always loved black cats as I'm alone now, I thought: "maybe, if she came with me could keep me company and bring me luck".
and here we are
She has become My Lady of the Smile in that way
