Dairy Queen (1st try)

[joebanks]

It's getting so I have to back back more than once to get a decent shot, because this one ain't it.



I drive by this Dairy Queen at least once a week when i go to get my mom for Sunday dinner. This is a beautiful design, the last one around; all other's replaced by those generic one's that look like Taco Bells and Arby's (this may all be regional stuff). It has no inside dining and the rest rooms are only accessed from the outside. The owner's house is on sight and there is also miniature golf and a driving range. They close in the winter and that is another beautiful shot; when the snow white building is surrounded by snowfields and there is a chain across the drive.

You seem dissatisfied, but I like this picture. I always take many pictures of any place I like a lot. Some places I just can't stop photographing. I hope we'll be seeing more of this place.

I feel the white is too bright. I hope i'll try again!

Love the lighting - seems like the cars parked there should be from the 60s-70s, not current models.

Yes that's it! Not sure how old it is but not brand new.

I like the halo around the light; also the reflections :)

I had the camera on the wrong setting; the halo is good and the reflective pavement is good, but the bleached out building, which was the subject isn't good.

But thanks!
