Nicely done. Beautifully exposed and rendered. Love the gallery as well.
The mall is very similar to the old Fairlane Mall in Dearborn,
Michigan. Looks like the same architect built it.

The community leaders in my town, like too many others, will not
rest until it reaches the state of anonymity that visitors can't

"out by the Interstate" is on-going, complete with generic
restaurant chains and national/regional department stores, now two
steps removed from the old, historic downtown area, which is in
serious decline.
In between the two is the old mall, once thriving and full of local
shops to go along with the chains. It is now a ghost town, as most
of the big stores have abandoned it, taking their traffic with them
and killing the local businesses.
It's been an interest to me for a while, wondering what will happen
to the space, so yesterday afternoon I drove over there, armed with
my K-7 and FA35/2, to see how it's doing. As part of a new project,
called, "What We Have Left," I want to document effects of this
movement.
Not a terribly original idea, I know, but it may be of local
interest at some point, and it's certainly in interesting
photographic possibility.
so, http://www.alphoto.com/images/whatwehaveleft/
These are the first of what I hope to be many images on the subject.
enjoy.
