Fast food voyeurism

I often think I should give my photos titles. This one would be: Boulevard of broken fast food dreams.

I snagged it outside the McDonald’s at Oxford and Wharncliffe, a busy intersection not far from the university campus. The grey skies were turning black, and I found myself with a few minutes to kill.

By now you know which cogs in my brain began to spin, and before long I was wandering the parking lot beside the drive-through lane looking for some optical inspiration.

It didn’t take long, as the indifferently painted brick framing the indifferently stacked chairs inside seemed like a fitting analog for the fast food economy.

We get it quick and we get it cheap. But at what cost?
