Repair
I suppose this sign indicates a building that is in need of repair?
Between when I shot this in April, and when I got it ready for the blog a couple of days ago, I’d forgotten if this place was in Ralls or Lorenzo. I used Google street view and “drove” down the highway until I spotted it. While that did save me some traveling, I realize that I also missed out on the chance to take more photographs….

nice scene! I like the details you’ve included like the truck, trees and heavy equipment around the building.

Thanks, Mark. It sort of felt like the truck/trees/equipment were guarding the building.

I can smell oil and stale cigarettes when looking at this photo.

I can, too. And also dirt, from the cotton field that is right behind the building.

I like the white highway line at the near bottom of the frame. It echos the utility line and, basically, all the horizontal lines of the building. While the building may need it, the photo does not need repair.

Thanks, Ken. All those horizontal lines echo the flat land around here, too.

Whilst this things look in need of repair, that sign is rather pristine.

I think the pristine look of the sign is mostly because it is made out of some relatively indestructible plastic….
