I like this image because the most interesting part of it isn't the first thing that you see. First you read the signs and then look down to the products, only for your sight to cross an arm holding out a gun. There is no expression from the shooter or an obvious target for the bullet so the imagination can go wild, thinking up stories for this act of violence. The fact that such a thing can be photographed shows how common it is to own a gun (in this place and time anyway), as it is out in the open, with no concealment, and in broad daylight.
