An urban study in colour...

I don't tend to take images of London's graffiti jus' for the sake of a picture, I am very selective and I guess I look for a message too, so this shot really stood out to me while I was walkin' the streets of Shoreditch, London.

Oh!! I like it, not just for the photo but much more for what was going on in the minds of the artists. If they can be this creative, Why! Oh! Why! don't they pick up a camera and use their creativity to entertain us on this thread? But I guess it is something like a message board to post messages to each other as their signature is contained in the pictures. It's wonderful social history, maybe not as a great photo but as an indicating of the age we live in. Thanks for showing this.

That really is colourful. Nice wall.
Any particular reason why it is tilted?

Thanks guys.

Ralf, I canted the shot to add a little dynamicism, and to separate it from a static and rigid viewpoint.
