It was another beautiful morning here in Truckee, California! I happen to be in Downtown Truckee a bit before sunrise so the sky was a great shade of blue. And we got a dusting of snow last night so the roads were a bit wet and reflecting the light of Truckee. I had the Canon camera with me so of course, I had to pull over and get a quick photo on my way to my destination. Glad I did, because I really like the look of this shot! The contrasting colors of the cool sky and the warm lights behind the constraining colors of the red and white gas station came together very nicely.
Shot with a Canon 5DS R and a 24-105mm lens, handheld, no tripod. The camera's ISO was 3200, the lens aperture was f/4.0, and it was 1/80 of a second exposure.
And here's a quick YouTube short of the scene.
I've actually got some great news to announce soon. I'll be officially launching my new website in a few days!!! For now, here's a sneak peak. There will probably be a few changes, but the incredible shopping cart is all set up and working and I can have prints shipped world wide! - New Website
(Edit - the link has been fixed... Doh!)
If you happen to check out the website, please let me know if you find any glitches or errors... Thank you, and thank you for checking out this new photo! Have a great day out there!

It will be great to visit those types of places
Indeed! Lots of tourists visit here.
At night time this view looks very beautiful because of these lightings it is nice to see things like this.
Yup! It's a great spot in the day, or at night.
Yeah.
Wow
I hope I’m amongst the first set of people to check your website
Congratulations to you on that
Thank you @rafzat!!! You are indeed.
It will really be great to visit that place
I highly recommend it! So many fun things to do, and incredible things to see up here.
The gas station looks very beautiful bathed in those colours, like golden flames but mellower. I really love the outcome of this photo.
Thank you @edith-4angelseu. Yes, everything was looking so crisp and colorful that morning.
Great shot! Love the old timey gas station with the neon sign and old pumps
Thank you @steven-patrick! I wish they would light up the sign and pumps again. But they decided to leave them off a few years ago. Too many drunk people from the bars across the street started throwing rocks at them. They had to keep spending money in order to fix them. So yeah, now they leave the lights off :(
I love the golden hues at the gas station, I love the rich Blue of the skies. Nice shots!
The colors were all looking beautiful this morning! And thank you.
That's great news!. Nice pictures as always
Thank you and thank you!!!! I'm excited about the new website...
Congratulations 👋 in advance on the launching of your new website. Thanks for the notification all the best
WooHoooo!!!! I'm excited about it. A lot of work but I think it's worth it...
