Graffiti Across The Mississippi

Another graffiti photo. Wonder about the implications of having multiple posts with the same title. Maybe I should number them, like Xavier? BTW, Xavier will be at the Uptown Art Festival this year again. Stop by at his booth if you happen to be there.

This shot was taken underneath a bridge across the Mississippi. That whole area was fairly tricky to walk around on, mini valleys and canyons, unstable soil. That’s one of the reasons I like to wear solid leather boats on photo shoots like this. They protect your feet and ankles, and give good ankle support. Unfortunately that doesn’t work during summer. Leather boots and shorts, now that would be a sight.

While I was taking photos, I heard this odd rumble behind me. Turned around a watched a section of the hill about the size of a refrigerator break loose and tumble down. Glad I wasn’t standing there :)

Eek! Be careful please!
I feel like I’ve walked into one of Neil Gaiman’s nightmarish stories…

Nice shot! As cool as the artwork is, I find it really sad that they use these kind of places for their canvas.

We do put ourselves in situations.

Love these graffiti shots. I never knew we had this much of this around. I guess the have to keep most of it hidden.

Very cool!
