Be nice to people
Do you know what happens when you stand on two of those plastic chair mats (which the building’s previous occupants left behind), then lean against the wall in order to get a little further down for the shot you want?

But, as it turns out, sitting on the floor was actually a better vantage point to get this shot.

Your town probably has an area like this, where everything seems frayed at the edges, where it doesn’t take much more hardship for it to be too much, where it is hard to imagine that it ever looked better.
This is that part of my town.
