Did you know that Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie visited the town while taping their reality television program, The Simple Life 2.

Great image - I never discovered IR during film days, which is really unfortunate. This has such a great look!

Love the look of the infrared film and the wonderful old slice of Americana you have captured here. Well done! L/F

That station was where I stopped once every six weeks when heading back out of town to my home in Canyon Lake. Nothing like a Orange Crush and a good hunk of Hill Country Jerky.
