Alien Light

Lamp, Abandoned Gas Station, near Lawrenceburg, Ohio  © Doug Hickok  All Rights Reserved


This lamp once kept a gas station well lit at night. But time passes, and what is left looks like remnants of an alien world.

    That's a lot, D!
    Yaks? You mean American bisons, right?
    Yea, American bisons are more shaggy and less horny!

    You're right! Quite an alien resemblance!! Or maybe this is where the Pixar lamp wound up for retirement. Love the beautiful decay throughout this cool shot Doug. Welcome back!!

    Unique and exceptional portraiture of this abandoned gas station! A scene of dilapidation has been turned into an unexpected enchantment! Brilliant!
