Frank's Garage

Uploaded: December 15, 2009

Description

Our car buddy built this gas station on his property and it makes a perfect backdrop. Of, course he just happened to have his Chevy parked in the bay! Natural light, topaz was used and here it is, "FRANK'S GARAGE."

Hi Robert: This wonderful setting belongs to a friend. He built it and it is his real garage. My goal is to get our entire group in an image like this. Also, if you go to Rita Hill's gallery you will find this photo with my twin grandsons by the gas pumps. She went with me that day. Merna #8561546

Hi Brian: Please forgive me for the very late reply. I appreciate you taking the time to comment and the very nice note. You are correct; this image would make a great puzzle and a wonderful poster.
