Palm trees :sohappy

Both pictures are lovely!

The sun breaking through the trees to show a bit on the front of the house in the first photo, and the varying shades of the trees according to sunshine or shade....excellent!

The picket fence is charming, and complements the house in the second picture beautifully!

They are near each other.you don't remember the white picket house?

I photographed it from the house with the palms months ago.oh the turbine.I can get close to it.

All the picture needed was some 50's era cars parked in front to make the photo look like it was taken in Mayberry.

Great photo, by the way!

photo editing. I made the mistake of not using the proper aperture setting. sadly this town once was much like vero. I see a lot of old vero style homes(boom time stucco, and bungalows and a lot of others). night life was out early.

You did a fine job with the editing, then. It's a lovely photo!

(It's been a busy evening for me)



I can look at palm trees all day long if I could!

Second picture, again with the use of black & white, looks like it could have been taken a few decades past. "Hand Car Wash" ??? You have hand cars in your area???

this is a building I have photographed and posted before but while I was shooting the diesel plant I planned to crop this into the old gas station /restaurant/garage with a vintage pump.View attachment 11150
 
I spotted a few more things of the time. I will be able to photo the other pump but not the old style beverage machine with the gulf name on it. I grew up getting sodas out of those for 35 cents. layed on the side and dropped out of the bottom. the other old gas station on the Gifford driving route has that in it as a storage unit with vintage cars of the time, 50's,40s' and 60s

I can remember getting a bottle of soda for a dime from the gas station machines. Of course, that's when you could return the empty bottle & get a nickel back for the bottle. There was recycling even way back then...only we didn't call it recycling.
