Welcome to my Flickr photostream, my name is Ryan H, I'm a straight smart American teenager who was born in the early 90s, I'm 14 and I'm a school student, of Christian religion. I love being with my family, and old cartoons and shows that started or aired before 2000, and the Muppets in general. I love to take photography of anything and everything. I especially love photography of alive and vacant retails, exteriors and interiors. Yea, I'm an idiot in some people's eyes since they just don't understand the fascination, but I do these for you the viewers. Thanks for your 2 year support! ;-D
I reside in an old 80s house in an area known as Hampton Roads, Virginia. I have always been fascinated by retail and related things, it led me to start randomly doing (awful, awful, awful) retail photography in June 2007, and it became a habit. Most of these photos are replaced by (maybe not so) better versions.
I joined Flickr after summer searching on September 8, 2007, thinking no one would dare look at a retarded page of stores. I was proved wrong when people like you began to view and review my photos. I then figured out I was not the only one who did this thing. If you would like to add me as a contact, just send me a request, I'll make you a friend!
My favorite restaurants (in no order) are Pizza Hut, Chick-Fil-A, McDonald's, and Little Caesars. I also like KFC, Burger King, Papa John's, and Wendy's. My favorite stores are Wal-Mart, Target, and Kmart XD. I can be picky though but I don't argue.
This world is full of great things that I'd like to post, but its hard to travel in this economy these days, but if there's something local you'll die for me to get a picture of, whether it a landmark, store, etc, send me a request! You people mean a lot to me, I wouldn't be who I am without you! So God Bless You, and keep a lookout for updates, even if they are ridiculous! :-D

RETAIL MEMORIES! with Darrell James says:
"Ryanrules95 is pretty young to have this fascination with retail conversions, but once he caught the "disease," he caught it bad! He's just as hooked as the rest of us.
And he is not afraid to simply ask the proprietor if he can take some pics, where the more timid would hold back.
His photoset of the Burger King (about a 1982 model) converted to a mirror and glass shop, are legendary."30th July, 2009
