<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I shot this because of the style of the sign</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and just the word itself, "Babe."</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is a commercial storage business.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I like the balance of the blue wall and the blue sky.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I like the lines - the power line, the cinder block rectangles,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the fence and the windows and the bars on the windows,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and especially the shadows of the fence and the window bars.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There are even several horizontal shadows cutting across the wall </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
from the multiple power lines above.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And I like the little clouds in the bright blue sky.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Hotel California.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I don't know if this is an ancestor, a descendant, a long lost uncle, or a disgraced distant cousin, but just in case you were wondering where to find the Hotel California,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
here it is... or a relative, at least.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Go ahead.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Check in any time you like.</div>
