Abandoned Gas Station

Photobucket

Here’s another photo from my archives.

This is an abandoned Shell gas station that was somewhere near the Wisconsin Dells. I wish I had put more of the building in the photo, but as I recall it had almost entirely collapsed.

I took this photo one morning in August, 1983 with a Pentax K1000 and Kodacolor VR (probably 200 ASA) film. This was scanned from the original print.

On a related note, I sent over 2000 images (color photo negatives and slides, as well as some black and white negatives) to be scanned at ScanCafe.com. Some of these go back as far as 1976. Within the next couple of months you can expect to see those, including a cleaned-up version of this shot.
