Noteworthy Photos from a Recent Safari to Target
Once, people traveled far for adventure. Now they just push a red cart into Target, navigating fluorescent jungles filled with toddlers, pajama-clad adults, and distracted grandparents. The aisles teem with rituals that are both ordinary and absurd, yet strangely captivating.
Shoppers migrate from Starbucks to Home Décor, clutching lists they will forget and impulse buys they cannot explain. Photographers capture these majestic moments, from abandoned carts to mysterious stains and heroic struggles over the last scented candle on sale.
So grab your binoculars and prepare for the suburban safari. These are the most noteworthy photos that reveal the untamed beauty of everyday retail life.
