p.1 #1 · The gas stations that fuel the South


Enjoyed this piece that highlights a big part of the rural south, and if you've ever lived here or visited, you know how some towns can rely on a single station as their main restaurant.

The video follows the travel of Kate Medley, and she shoots her documentary work on Nikon, at least in this piece. Peeped the 28-135 PZ!

Excellent video, and I love the photography she did. I tend to try to eat healthier than the fare most of these places serve, but I still like seeing these types of businesses in small towns. I lived in the South for 17 years before needing to move 4 years ago, and my wife and I would purposely go exploring through towns way out in the middle of nowhere many weekends. It's so fun the places you find, and yes, you do run across some amazingly good food in some of them.

Thanks for sharing! I’ve never been to that part of the US. Closest is probably Texas.

Didn’t know you could shoot reportage without using a Leica… /s

Kidding aside, I like the video and the idea behind the shots, but I think the images themselves are oversaturated. The video footage has better colors to my eyes, better conveying the places and challenges.

Plenty of towns in Texas that fit the mold, just have to get a few hours away from the city

Excellent documentary and lovely people.

I like how she threw in a ‘y’all’ @2:30 to fit in
