After a long delay I went back and reshot this old gas station.

That's a pretty retro looking image Pete. I looked up the station and have seen it in color. very nice work making it look so clean. What sort of camera and what editing did you use?

I shot it with a Canon 5D III w/70-200 II, software was Nik silver efex pro II.

A Hummingbird practices the art of sitting still this morning. Temps have cooled down quite a bit!

Guys, this post is a bit of a downer......

Been traveling in Germany, Belgium, and Luxembourg this week. Bastogne, Malmedy, St Vith, the Hurtgenwald and other sites to pay homage to the Battle of the Bulge. You cannot go anywhere in Belgium and Luxembourg without running into memorials, large and small, to the liberation of Europe. Very powerful, but the remarkable thing was the steady flow of visitors to the museums and memorials. People of all ages. Parents with their children, a young couple on a motorcycle, older folks, all showing great reverence to it all.

This is the SS kennels at Buchenwald just outside of Weimar. Scared the crap out of me when I saw the image on the fence. Well worth a visit if you are serious about history. It is a very touching memorial as well.

Truly a selfless generation. I doubt there will be another.

That is scary. Regardless of what a person may believe (or not), there is evil in the world. We see it continually throughout history (and present day).

Here's one I took today of Jeremy Rosado, an American Idol contestant, at a local Latino Summer Festival. I made it B&W in Photoshop, then used Silver Efex Pro to do a little more to it. I think it's my favorite pic of the ones I took.

^^Super bitchin' polished floor. What's that going to be?

I was once in a Ferrari dealership in LA that had such awesome polished concrete floors that you could see the underside of the cars suprisingly well.

High end hangar, or is the floor actually wet?

Regardless, very cool pic!

Have fun,

Jerry
