3, 2, 1...

Late Spring and a visit to The Warren, Folkestone. Whilst Nic sat on the beach collecting fragments of wave-worn glass for some future artistic creation I sought out some colour for my lens.

Satellite dishes, colour and texture

More graffiti, but this time sanctioned by those who use the buildings; the bottom three being part of exterior wall decorations of a boxing club. Rather than try and include the whole artwork I close in here and there to include the textures of the surfaces they are painted on.

Oh, yes...  and the top image is of a Satellite TV dish and its shadow.

Writing on the wall

Graffiti: Whether as an artistic outlet, a political statement or merely the act of marking your territory, it has always fascinated me as a photographic subject. An illegal act in most cases, and costly to clean up, it is all a matter of perspective as to how you view it. Frankly, unless it's outright offensive I don't have a problem with it.
