Malls, roads, planes being stored, ports, and other non-activity.  The markets are going to sink this week again as it sets in that the economy is coming to a near standstill.

It reminds me of the sci-fi book and movie, "The Day the Earth Stood Still".  It was a great fun movie but this isn't fun.  This is really scary.

Great series of pix; thanks for posting them. Thinking back to the 50s, the human race has clearly evolved more in the interim than it did in the past few thousand years. Michelin was on to something.

Good set, Robert.

There was a time when I was shooting malls commercially. Less street-like, less whimsical, given the client constraints, but I still hope some esthetics shows through.

I hope it was clear that the photo set is not mine. The photographer is Herman Krieger. The rest of his site is also a pleasure to look at.
