Great photo, Peggy you captured the textures well and the antique toning really sets the mood. Judging from the gas pumps, this station was in use far later than the Bonnie and Clyde days, since the pumps look like they are from the '60s or '70s.   Posted: 02/10/2025 16:07:44

Hi Peggy - great capture, and maybe more noteworthy, great processing! Your image instantly gives that feeling of old, era piece and transports the viewer to a different time. It's nicely exposed too; you've kept details in the shadows as well as managed the highlights so we can still see the clouds. The crop you've selected works well too, putting those gas pumps right on that power point, making the image feel well balanced.   Posted: 02/17/2025 15:16:11

Peggy,
Congrats on standing where you coukd get the whole gas station. Well balanced image with a nice cushion on either side of the gas station. Rendering the image in b&w was the right decision since you were trying to convey an old time feel. You might even have gone with sepia tone. I found the white on the front of the building a little bright. You might just experiment with bringing down the highlights.   Posted: 02/17/2025 17:02:12

I love old gas stations. This is great. Where is it located? I'd like to see it myself.

Well done photo, nothing that I can add.   Posted: 02/18/2025 17:36:22
