GemGemComment: I knew when I entered this shot that I wouldnt get a high score. On first glance, yea it can look a bit rubbish... but if you can take the time to look at it properly, its actually not a bad shot.
I personally like the fact that you cant make everything out, that the houses are just blobs of colour, and you can just make out the outlines of the cars/pumps etc. I also like the fact that I managed to retain the Shell logos and numbers on the pumps.
I knew noone else would submit a shot like this, so at least it was original! Anyway, a normal picture of a petrol station in the UK wouldnt be very exciting unless it was dark, but I couldnt find the time to get out in the hours of darkness in the time we had to get this shot. So I went with this.
Happy some people appreciate it like I do. Alot of the comments were rude and pointless. I like constructive criticism, but if your going to be plain rude, dont bother commenting! It doesnt exactly help ameteurs like myself!
Guess I will see this shot emerge again in the next ribbon challenge!
