No Film?

[Chris Dodkin]

Spotted on Route 66 in AZ

X-Pro1 and 14mm Lens - PP in NIK AnalogFX

Just think, there are already generations of kids who have no idea what this billboard was advertising!

Sadly that is true. Super shot (and a nice frame!).

 

[Beth Carter]

you're right, those com dial fastrak checks are ancient history these days.

 

[Glenn Clabo]

Yup you're right about the film...but what's a US Post Office? I can hear them now...Put a what (stamp) on a what (letter) and what (mail) it? Are you kidding me...you really did that?
I love old signs btw...nice catch.

Lovely example of decaying Americana, Chris.

Thanks Pete - seemed appropriate, and I've been itching to try AnalogFX

[Paul Lange]

Really nice Chris. Yep, unfortunately progress can be a double edged sword at times.

 

[Pete Askew]

Hmm, a double edged sword eh? Now there's an idea!

 

[Paul Lange]

Err, thats great Pete I'm sure.... You have gone a bit cryptic these last couple of posts?

 

[Pete Askew]

Progress. Double edged sword. New idea. Oh never mind!

Thanks Chris;

We might be heading on holiday towards the end of 2014 ish to both Pasadena (LA) and Hawaii (Maui) as I've a brother who lives between both those locations (lucky him).
We would take 3 weeks off work to fit it all in, a holiday of a lifetime I think.
