 This is a last day of business shot. I was taken aback by the announcement today that Nature's Own, Science & Nature Store on Elkhorn Ave. in Estes Park, CO. will close and go out-of-business. One of my favorite stores for decades, i will always remember the Stegasaurus in one window and a T-Rex in the other window. This store will be missed. Just too many blows to the economy... fire, flood, government closedown of RMNP. A casualty...

I gave this shot a 5. I like the coloration and clarity. The perspective looking into the store is nice. I don't feel it really shows a clear beginning or end. Unfortunately, I don't find the image especially interesting.

You'd think they would have some signs up (Final Sale, etc...) if they were closing. Yes?
