Wow! this is kept in good condition. A great capture Ron. "You can be sure of Shell" or so the advert used to say here, back in the 70's

It's not only the pump, but the building, the windows, that's what I imagine is the spirit of the Route 66.

If only gas was still that cheap!!1 Really nice picture Rob. I like this shot - the colours are great!

very nice color, like it

Excellant color in this shot. It's a beautiful vintage pump....now I wonder if I can get the vintage price at this pump.
19 May 2008 6:44am
That's a great old vintage model. Do you agree that things were better then....? BTW Ron, it was 'Shell' that operated out photo club (see my about page). Great shot bud.

Great nostalgic image...beautiful vibrant colors, great light. I love the shapes and lines of these old pumps.

What a great subject and image. The subdued light is very attractive, although I think I might have played around with the levels in postprocessing, and brought the highlights up a fraction. (Just an idea.)

Evil Shell has a great friendly looking logo with gorgeous colours. I wonder if the red is for all the blood the continue to cause to be shed. That is a beautiful shade shot. It looks great with the white background.

I really likie this, and I think it would go well with my photo of yesterday or the day beofre...anyway it was yellow ;)
19 May 2008 11:02am
Beautiful photo! Although I really like the colours it would be interesting to see it in b&w
19 May 2008 12:37pm
Haha, nice choice of subject Ron, great colors...$5.74?!
19 May 2008 12:41pm
Nice shot. Great color. I would guess it has been reconditioned to be in that nice of shape. Total sale $5.74, I guess that means they just got a gallon. ;-) Hopefully we don't actually get to that point.

Lovely shot, Like the colours in this once. Great work.

Isn't it strange how much we are attracted to the ordinary just by the passage of time. Very nice.

Even the price seems to be of an other age !!! 0-)) An interesting and colorful subject.
19 May 2008 4:06pm
Wonderful shot Ron !!! Wys

Old gas pump, low price per gallon, yellow and red... What's not to love?
19 May 2008 10:21pm
Wow! Those were the days! Great shot!
19 May 2008 10:46pm

20 May 2008 8:43pm
Nice work, I like colors and composition.

Cool shot with great colours! Like everyone else..I wish gas prices were still this low! You might like to have a look at one of my other posts here for something similar...

Dammit. I thought I was so clever doing that link thing but it looks like I've linked back to your archive page instead. DOH! ANYWAY...it's posted on the 28 of April if you want to have a look!

It's a beautiful colour, there starting to look like icons from a different era.

I was getting gas the other day and noticed someone had left their receipt. Total sale: $130. I was glad I wasn't driving their vehicle.
