p.1 #1 · #48 37 cents a gallon

This is some old technology that I would love to come back... the only reason is because of price which was 37 cents on the red pump. You cannot see the prices on the scaled down version of this image. Anyway, this was in a small town of 101 in S. Cali I passed through a couple of days ago. I had pulled off to get gas. Of course, as much as i would have loved to pay 37c.. i had to pay something like $3.57.

I like this shot. It would be great if the light was better and/or if you boosted the saturation to make the colors brighter.

Hi Mark,

A lovely shot and I really like the muted colors. Definitely has both a nostalgic, but empty feel. Good luck this month.

I bumped up the saturation just a bit and after considering the pros and cons decided to keep the more saturated version.

Did you try to pump gas with them? I would've at $.37 a gallon. Great image, I like saturated shots.

Nice photo,
Chad
