Photo #3000! Antique Shell Gas Pump

Anyone else "see" a psychedelic eye here? Large view
Photo #3000! Antique Shell Gas Pump by cobalt123.
I just noticed that this photo is number 3,000 that I have on flickr. Wow, lots of time, views, and miles have gone by since I first started with flickr. I think my two year anniverary is coming up soon. I'm glad that this milestone image happened to be one I particularly like.

Image from a set I am working on for Chloride, Arizona. Antique gas pump in Chloride, Arizona. The former gas station is decorated with 3 antique gas pumps and is now a small gift shop. This image is a detail view of the Shell gas pump, with the previous two photos showing it in context. 
This photo has notes. Move your mouse over the photo to see them.

Congrats on your 3000th photo! (I have quite a way to go before I reach that milestone, but I did have my 30,000th view a couple of days ago.) And yes, this is a good one. Gas was probably around 18-20 cents per gallon back in the heyday of this pump.

That's 3,000 great photos!

Noticed that the pump only goes up to 99.9 cents, that surely dates it.
