Small Town Texaco

Very nice photo. I really like these old stations. Those old pumps look like they're in excellent condition too......
I could see me removing all the BG sky line items in PS just for another cleaner look. .......

I thought about that too, but after eliminating a bunch of derelict lawnmowers at the right edge, I opted to keep the "rural America" artifacts in the background... It's the usual: "should I or shouldn't I...?"...

I really like this. Lots of similar approaches but most end up as cliche or more snapshot...this is a well realized photograph.

I really like it. It reminds me of a simpler time. The exposure is spot on. The detail, you can see the shingles on the building way over on the right. What lens did you use? I use an RZ.

Wow, it has to be 35-40 years since I last saw those kind of pumps in the U.K. Now with the "Pay at Pump" ones you can drive up, get petrol and never have to speak to anyone. With internet/digital everything and if you single/widow/widower, it will soon be possible to live your life without any contact with other human beings. That's especially sad now Christmas is upon us.

P.S. I used to like the even older ones that had a clock-type face with hands

I used a rattly old 90mm, (always on a tripod, always "mirror up").

Incredibly fastidious gasoline station!
