Floating in a sea of light
This vacant building is now a parking lot, and while that may not be the very best use of an old building, at least the building’s still there.
And look at that light coming in the distant window, giving that far wall the appearance of floating.

Another thing that doesn’t make sense
When I look inside abandoned places, I nearly always see something that doesn’t make sense, that’s out of place, that’s unexpected.*
In this case it was the chairs. Oh, and that lettering on the wall.

*The Patient Spouse maintains that one of these days I’m going to see a dead body. That may be why he generally waits in the car while I’m looking around.
The rhythm of the place
So, I concentrated on the top of the building, while my friend Ehpem was looking down lower. I guess between us, we had the place covered, photographically speaking.
(If you haven’t looked at Ehpem’s post, you really should. He got a creepy image at the theater.)

Walgreen Screen
I am sure that by now you know how much I like making photos inside parking garages. Here’s one made from a parking garage, just for a little change of pace. And also because I like how the circles in the screen make the Walgreen’s letters seem to bounce up and down.

cross/cross/window
One of my work friends, who often serves as a location scout for me, told me about this town. It’s nearly on the Interstate – close enough to have its own exit but far enough way that drivers don’t have any real reason to take it.
Unless I’m the driver. Then I’m pretty happy to be able to get off the highway and go for a bit of a wander in a town whose better days are long in the past.
