Thursday Challenge "Decadence"

I choose to go with Decay rather then the joys of food. I just felt this has a multi message about the decay of the small businesses and the decay of our joy & freedom of driving.

Canon EOS 20D
1/250s f/9.0 at 16.0mm iso200 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Great shot! Wish you could still buy gas for what those pumps sold it for. :( Love the toning on this, it fits the mood perfectly.

Great color tone. It emphasizes the sagging house. Nicely done.

excellent image. The building is going the way gas stations are going, that is away.

Ashes to ashes as they say. Maybe a spot of paint might give it a few more years.
