I have a passion for graffiti.
Photographing it, not creating it. Downtown Guelph has a lot of it and it's usually a mixed bag. Sometimes there's a lot of good stuff, other times it's a bit weak. Some times you can find lots of it and other times there's very little because it's been painted over by the city.
Each of the artists bring their own little flavour. There are the rebels.
Word, brother.
There are the romantics.
Awwww. I'm more of a flower girl, but this works too. And big points as he used you're. Ding, ding, ding. Not so easy for some people.
When looking for graffiti in Guelph you don't have to go too far. Today we walked from Goldie's Mill along the river, past the Matrix building to the courthouse and there was a pile of graffiti. But the mother lode of graffiti can be found at the bus station.
I'd heed the ominous "Abandon hope all ye who enter here" warning and please god, if you are going here don't go alone and do not go at night. There were a couple of sketchy individuals hanging out in the tunnel today. They didn't bother us but I am really glad we were in a group.
Make no mistake. We may be small but we're mighty and the one on the right swears like a pirate.
Here are some other randoms from today:
So overall it was a good day. Damn cold, but a fun day. Thank you my friends. It was nice to get out.

Mikayla's blog. She's 15 and absolutely brilliant. I could only dream of taking a self portrait
this fabulous.)
