i couldn’t see (an abstraction)
Hello, and welcome to Tricks of the Trade Friday. Here’s another one in my ongoing series of photos shot through dirty windows. I guessed* at the focus, held the camera as high as I could, put it right up to the glass, and made the photo. I am not quite sure what the camera saw, but anyway – here it is.

* It was a guess. I cannot really claim it was even an educated guess. It was a straight-up guess.
“executive” is not the word I would have used
Someone may not understand the implications of the word “executive.” None of the things here – the broken windows; the wonky, old-time Venetian blinds; the awning frame that lacks an awning; those awful benches; and even the weather checked sign conjure up anything that the word generally implies. But maybe someone needs credit for trying?
