GAS

It looks like HDR , but if it is, you have chosen the right subject and the right blending to go with it.

I really like the painterly quality of it, it remiunds me of a story book illustration.

Beautifully done!

Thanks for your view and comment. It does resemble HDR, but I don't do HDR. This is mostly created with a Nik software filter called, "Strengthen Details" or something like that. I really like Nik software because it gives so many options to play with.

Subject and treatment combined creates a psychedelic mirage.  The color is so brilliant, it's almost painful.  That neon red on the gas pump is almost aggressive.  I like the approach a lot.

I really like the way you processed this. There's something about the slightly sun-washed, candy-colors that puts this in a kind of cartoon land and turns these antique gas pumps into individual characters like something out of PIXAR's "Cars". The blue shadows complete the illusion.

Thanks for the kind words. It's not my usual cup of tea. Quite tarted up actually, but a guy has to play around sometimes and this was my time. Besides, I haven't had the time to work on the stuff that matters to me. You know, the crap nobody likes because it's ugly and mundane and reminds us  of the darker side of humanoids.  Cheers

This is  the  funnyest gas station I  ever saw, great colors PP, even the shadows are funny.

 

Wonderful " sweet "colors, and still !! your  ironic side is so well present. I'm still smiling  ;-))

Yes, it is extremely graphic, but, well suits the subject.

Cheers.
