these images were taken in the very small town of Helena, Alabama. a wonderful place to visit if you’ve ever wanted to see the small towns of old. the late afternoon sun casts a very long shadow here.
Marvelous photo shots, I love that old town vibe, the Shell station pump and the Cola machine is just the perfect example of that good old times kind of feeling.
Well-spotted shadows indeed. There’s also something striking about the first photo, with its strong vertical and horizontal lines, enhanced by the brightness of the light.
Thank you, Reggie. The magical late afternoon sunlight can change the ordinary into the extraordinary! I guess maybe that is the gold we should all enjoy. ~amy
It is a really cool building. I’m not sure what its purpose is, because it doesn’t sell gas & i’ve never seen it open. But i’ll bet its been photographed a thousand times. Thank you, ~amy
great set but I really love the first shell coca cola shot
