shell

it seems we will all have to shell out more money for gasoline these days due to the unrest in the Middle East...we can grumble about the increase in prices, but for car owners there is little choice but to keep filling up the tank

thanks to all who offered thoughts on gallery length yesterday...there is a general consensus that galleries can get too long, and all images should ideally be on one page...I will definitely end that Metro Vancouver there at 120 images, and in the future keep others to no more than 100-120 photos

Nikon D90
Nikkor 18-200mm - 1/4s f/6.3 at 42.0mm iso200 full exif

other sizes: small medium large auto

I know that you put this image up in 2011. However, it has not changed for the good. Here are in October 2012. Our gas prices are going back up. You can attest to it on your trip to the Desert Southwest. If you want to go some where, you have to have gasoline. If one could come up with a car that runs on water, we could become rich. Very nicely seen.

Super night shot, David! ~
Yes, our fuel is terribly expensive these days and everyone we know has cut back to mostly necessary travel.

Excellent night-time image of what is, for most of us, a necessary stopping point! V

Yep, it is all politics and who we've promised who what. Great job on this and yeah, it bites to have to pay so much.

It's all politics David ~ they determine the oil prices.....
Cool shot! V

Great low-light shot, the Shell garages look just like the ones over here (apart from the prices of course!!!)

Great night shot with those luminous colours. As Johnny said, petrol prices
are much higher here..V

Shame the friendly warm orange glow isn't so friendly when it comes to paying :o/
Johnny JAG28-Feb-2011 20:02
It's a nightmare scene, you should see the cost of fuel over here! It's gone up 25% in less than a year.

Stellar night shot with this perspective, exposure, lighting and colors. Gas Stations make great subjects for night photography. "V"
