Quoting Darren Addy <[email protected]>:
Rogers is a Nebraska village on Hwy 30 (historically known as the
Lincoln Highway) and is almost exactly at the midpoint of traveling
between the larger Nebraska "cities" of Columbus and Fremont,
Nebraska. According to the 2010 census, there were 95 people living in
Rogers. This "old timey" auto repair shop (also known as a "garage")
has long captured my attention while driving past, but this is the
first time I took the opportunity to stop and photograph it. As luck
would have it, after one shot my camera battery died and I didn't have
another with me, so I got only one shot. I had some settings wrong, so
it came out with the wrong color balance and exposed improperly but I
didn't get rid of it. A long time later I tripped across the image and
decided to have go at it with the Nik software filters of Color Efex
Pro 3 and then Silver Efex Pro. This was my favorite of the various
iterations that I made. I may share the others later for a comparison.

Very interesting subject with lots of potential for further shooting.
Those old doors look especially photogenic.
The image does have a slight backwards tilt that could be treated with
a bit of perspective correction.
