If people continue to drive "cars" such as this one ofcourse they will have to pay the price ;) nice effect with b/w

perhaps a person filling up would have made this more interesting

thank goodness the oil companies are posting record profits, while denying gouging,

Lots of visual noise in this - the lights and the signs and trees being so in focus is tough on this, nice thought but a better angle might tell this story better - 4

I want to come get gas where ever you are... it's up to 3.19 a gallon for the cheap stuff here. Well done shot

Why wouldn't you show the person actually filling up? Put a face on the story?

Decent, but why not wait til the person is actually pumping gas, or paying the machine with a card?
