    No Pepsi for You!

    Used my newly returned Canon S400 to test it out. This is an abandoned Pepsi machine near a rundown Texaco station.

    Good composition, simple.

    I'd like to see more shots of this in different lighting, maybe bring a friend to pose by it with a coke or pepsi in a modern can or bottle and current style clothing to give context to the picture.

    As for PP on this shot, try turning up the contrast and turning the brightness down, I did that a little and it gave it a little more punch

    Re: No Pepsi for You!

    Com'on, mwfanelli, you found a nice prize but didn't do anything with it... It's a great find, but lacks creativity in composition. Some shadow, people, an old gas pump in the foreground, etc might have really added to the shot.

    Anyways, if you ever make it back by there -- let er rip.
