Big box against a brilliant blue sky

The sky was a particularly vibrant shade of blue as I wandered in between the big box stores dotting the power centre parking lot and waited for my brain to go ding.

It's not as if the architecture - let's call it early-21st-century-cheap-commercial - was particularly photo-worthy.

Which is largely why I enjoy being here so much. Because shooting something resonant when the architecture is magazine-worthy is easy. The upper northeast corner of the back of the Baskin-Robbins, however, is a little harder to tease out.

Which is entirely why I'd rather be right here, looking up, finding the wonder that no one else can - or wants to - see.
