This
Another shot from Sudan, just a couple of blocks from the yard sale sign. Kind of a mystery, I think, about what “This” refers to, but I like it.
This entire block of buildings had once been busy; I saw evidence of a beauty shop, a video store, the Eastern Star place, some offices, and so on. But now: nothing was still in business and the roofs were caved in.
Good for photography; bad for the town.

A few more rectangles
Here’s one for my friend Ehpem, who noticed my tendency to shoot rectangles even before I’d figured it out. I guess you can tell which one of us was paying attention. (Hint: it wasn’t me.)

A building? No, a work of art.
The Jay Pritzker Pavilion in Chicago’s Millennium Park is designed by famed architect Frank Gehry. I really don’t care for Gehry’s work – to me it tends to look like wadded up aluminum foil. But, he’s famous and I’m not, so there you go.
I do like this, the structure to hold up sound and lighting equipment. It spans a grassy lawn, where concert-goers can listen to some music. (Monday, June 17, 2013: Daniel Lanois)
(Also: the Pavilion’s bandshell was too tall for the building height restrictions, so the City of Chicago classified it as a “work of art” rather than as a “building.” That seems about right, I guess.)

My (current) favorite town
Here’s another shot of this building.
It’s also the same place where I found some rectangles, a slightly disturbing sign, #4 in the White on White series, and a steam laundry.
Colorado City: my favorite town.

7Up
This is sort of a companion to an earlier post,from another town, called “Business Route” is optimistic. In this case, the “business route” is Interstate 20J Business.
Not much going on here. But I do like the 7Up sign on the wall.
