This week’s random image is of an old Service Station in Celeste, Texas. Celeste is just down the road from us and we pass through town often. Each time I pass through town I always try and stop by and photograph the service station but there’s always a truck parked in the way. I was finally able to get a quick shot of the service station!

Old Service Station in Celeste, Texas

Another excellent example of a time when service stations were family owned and just big enough to support the community. Sadly many of these old service stations have been torn down or have been renovated so much you can’t even tell that it was a service station at one time.

This one is privately owned and looks to be mostly original. Several times I’ve seen old timers sitting around the picnic table eating lunch or talking.

About the Image

I used my Sony a6000 and my Sony SELP18105G E PZ 18-105mm F4 G OSS lens. The image was then edited with Adobe Lightroom CC, Topaz Labs Denoise AI and Topaz Labs Sharpen AI,  Aurora HDR, and Luminar AI to clean up the image.
