I always knew you were fishy Pete

Love the accommodation of the bright sunlit side of the street, and the shadow side, in the final exposure

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Lots to look at there, Pete. A good touch of humour always helps a street shot.

 

[Pete Askew]

Thanks both.

Fishy indeed!

 

[Hamish Gill]

Where are these graffitied buildings you are shooting?

 

[Glenn Clabo]

Nice photo...but must say I'm surprised at the amount. I don't think it was as in vogue in 1970...or maybe because if caught they would have been shot back then?

 

[Pete Askew]

Quite probably and they have certainly made up for it in the last 40 years! More than Berlin!

Uh-oh,...here we go,...

Pete,...I know how you feel. (Mature and meaningful comments are so often lacking from some members.)

I, however, will offer that this is a fine shot. Indeed, I'd say its a 10 on a, er,..."scale" of 1-10.

Super and I saw what you did with the grammar, ha ha.

In Athens @Hamish Gill . Mostly around Monastiraki. There's a few more at http://www.babelsberg-studio.com/photographer.asp?u=2 in a gallery titled 'Graffiti'.

Thanks Paul. And thanks Brian!
