Greetings, Pumpkinbox!
Somehow you viewed this pump before I even finished mapping it! :)
You are very quick!
Thank you for your visit, and I hope you're enjoying your evening.
Cheers,

Charming color and pump, Mary Alice, one suggestion, you can try a bigger aperture and focus to the pump, and the background will be a little blur , maybe it is more charming:)
Wishes a good day, ^Robin^

Thank you so much for visiting this old pump! I was so excited to find another one with so much character and in such perfect condition! :)
Robin, I will certainly take your suggestion into consideration! Sounds great, and thank you!
I hope you both are enjoying your day to the fullest. It is BEAUTIFUL here, and I can't wait to get out there in it!

Nice shot Mary Alice, i don't think it would have worked in colour.
All the best, David.
MaryAlice, on April 22, said:
Ahhhh yes, David, I also thought it was screaming to be done in Sepia! :) I'm so happy that you liked it as well.
Thanks so much for your many wonderful comments! I have enjoyed all of your visits greatly.
Have a wonderful evening,
Mary Alice

Another surreal pump Mary Alice, beautifully captured.
I hope you are enjoying your evening,

Greetings, Sean.
How wonderful to see you here @ the pump! How are you this evening? I am doing swell! I have to go to bed a little early tonight though, because I have to take the dog to the vet AND go to the dentist Very early in the morning. I HATE getting up early. Don't you hate EARLY? I am much happier when I can stay up late, and sleep in late, but only Saturdays allow that to happen.
....And so I wait eagerly for Friday night! :)
Thank you for stopping by and admiring the old pump! Can you just imagine how excited I was when I ran up on it? It was a lovely pump I thought!
Thank you for your compliments, and I hope you enjoy your evening to the fullest.
Warm regards,
Mary Alice

Greetings to you too Mary Alice.
Happy to call by and hope the visit to the tooth doctor went well.
I'm a bit of an early bird myself and Saturday mornings are my time to be out and about (probably an age thing!!).
Couldn't agree more about the gas pump: I'm sure I saw one just like it in 'Lost in Space'!!
Enjoy the rest of your day,
Warmest regards,
Sean.

My trip to the dentist was awesome, and thank you so much for your concern. I just had to get a root canal finished up, and now I'm SO happy that it's all over and done with! :) Dentistry scares me to death!
So, you're an early bird? Wow! How about that? Well, I commend your early morning energy, because I struggle with getting up every morning. I come alive mid evening though, and could easily stay up until 5:00 or so very comfortably! :)
Do you have many old gas pumps over there? If so, you should get some shots of some for me! I am fascinated with everything old! :)
Well, I better go and get busy with things around here. I have been out playing all afternoon.
Thanks so much for your very kind visit, and enjoy the rest of your evening.
Warmest regards,
Mary Alice

Outstanding doesn't even begin to describe this one, Merry Alicia. It's pure, fine, wonderful, striking, awesome, special, ... (I could go on, but I'll show a little restraint),

Happy Paul:
I'm SO happy to see you today! :) Happy! Happy! Happy! :)
I was wondering if you would see that I had posted up a new pump! :) Your appreciation for it is so delightful! Showing restraint is not necessary either! Feel free to go all out if you want to, anytime at all! ;) I was really excited when I drove up on it too! Of course, I immediately thought of YOU! :)
Greetings H.P. and I hope you have a wonderful day. Once again, it's terrific hearing from you.
All the best,
Merry Alicia

Greetings, Richard!
What a treat! :)
Thank you so much for your appreciation of this fine pump! Indeed, we would have it made if the prices could go back to the way they were in it's day. Wouldn't that be amazing?
Thank you again for your kind visit.
Enjoy your night!

Jim,
Why are you in such a hurry? I'm glad that you like the shot, and I'm pleased for your visit, but you simply must slow down a bit! You've gotten Happy Paul all in a stir now, do you see? He is calling you an ancient web footed seabird! :)
Greetings, you two!
