The colors come across as a little flat, and while an old gas pump would not be expected to be shiny, bright, and deeply saturated, this photo is more a graphic than a depiction of an old pump, so a somewhat bolder approach to the color may be helpful.
Where's this station with the old pumps that you mentioned? Shel ======= Saranap Gas Station, Olympic Blvd., Walnut Creek. I used to be pretty friendly with the previous owner. He used to do test runs on all the old cars I bought before I bought them. Thanks for the comments. I wanted, partly, to know if it was worth greater post processing. When I have time, I'll desaturate it a bit, and work on the sharpening a bit. I obviously still have a long way to go on RAW conversion and post processing. Actually, I was doing better using Canon's RAW convertor, come to think of it, than I am using Elements 3 RAW convertor. Just hit me. Sort of interesting. Thanks for commenting, Shel. Marnie aka Doe
