I had an interesting conversation with Chuck Hamsher in the Purple Moon about how artifacts go from being "in fashion" to just "old fashioned" and then back to being cool again. After you've lived long enough to witness this over and over again it's obvious and yet mysterious at the same time.
It's been a while since I've photographed the fish at Wal-Mart... but I was back in that part of the store yesterday searching for Christmas tree lights and I noticed the fish department. I love the orange color against that blue background. If only they'd clean the glass once in a while.
