Valu-mart

Valu-mart is a supermarket chain in Ontario and Quebec; all but one store are in Ontario. It's a classic example of late twentieth-century retail architecture.

As I was about to say...

...before I was so rudely interrupted, happy Fence Friday! Even though it's Monday! Seriously, the two best photos I have to post at the moment are of fences, so here's the one I tried to upload Friday. I've put this in my Tributes album because I think it was inspired by Robert Adams's "Tract House, Westminster, Colorado": www.damianzimmermann.de/blog/wp-content/uploads/adams3.jpg

I like the full-screen view: type Z then click the frame at top right. Your preference may vary.

This looks brightest in the full-screen version -- type Z, then click the frame to the right of the comment balloon. Please.

Another one influenced by Robert Adams, I think. ---- Marko Novosel and Steve Bucknell have suggested William Eggleston and Ed Ruscha as other possible influences, and I agree they may have played a role here. I certainly learned a lot about composition from them.

A Valu-mart other than the one I usually shop at. I love their look.
