Monthly theme: Graffit, Ljubjana and then Detroit

I've misplaced my Detroit graffiti so I am posting some graffiti from
Ljubljana, Slovenia from when we were there in June. These pictures
were taken in the underpass leading to Ljubljana's Trivoli Gardens.
Street performers and teens were hanging out in there juggling and
smoking because it was raining outside.

If I locate my Detroit pictures, I may add them later.

OK, here's one from Detroit, taken at the ruins across from Tr-Centennial Park near the Waterfront (and two for color)(If I find any more, I'll post them tomorrow! LOL!):

Mary Stebbins Taitt said...

Thanks so much Jim and Jilly! YAY!

The Slovenian stuff id true street art and most worthy.

The Detroit taggers are much like the taggers we get here - not terribly good as artists.

Clueless in Boston said...

Great photos. I particularly liked the one with the keyhole effect.

Southern Heart said...

Four of the comments I wrote on Theme Day are gone or were never published. Bloody Blogger!

So here's take two:

I love the colors and the light in the first and the three last photos. You put together a very nice post for the theme, Mary.

Have a nice Sunday. :)

Hi Mary

Great art, I love the colors. I published some art too. Have a nice weekend.

Very cool pics from Ljubjana. Too bad about the tag at tri-centennial park. I think it detracts from what's supposed to be a nice recreational area, even if it is colorful.
