    Very nice graffiti, well photographed with the vivid colours really like how you framed the shots . I was out shooting a model today and one place we picked had some really well done graffiti that worked well for background. Graffiti when done right though an art form all its own.

    Thanks AL. The first model I ever shot was using graffiti as a backdrop. I've always admired the art form. Seems the really good stuff is well hidden. This stuff you'd never see if you followed the beaten path, this intrigues me somehow.

    Anyway here's one I punched in post for fun.

    I know graffiti gets some hard press, but some of these artworks are pretty impressive. I like the bk-drop idea.

    The really good graffiti takes time and so they don't want to be out in the open while they work which is why you find it hidden I think. Awesome shots, MAW. I just love the colours.
