Graffiti in San Francisco

I'm just a sucker for graffiti. This image was captured in San Francisco near Haight Ashbury.

I always love images of doors, windows, and hinges. These simple mechanical contrivances are endlessly fascinating. This photograph has another theme I adore, which is the color image on a monochrome field, which I mentioned in my post Still Life with Scooter. Graffiti in San Francisco has a very similar color scheme to my Roman Spigot photograph. Other images that features graffiti are:
Venetian Window
Roman House of Gold

You may buy an 8x10 Fine Art print of this image here in my shop.

Roman House of Gold (8x10 Fine Art Print)

This is another street scene in Rome. I suppose that graffiti is just accepted as a part of life there.

This is part of a series of images I took in Italy last year along with Roman Street Scene (Still Life With Scooter).

Fine Art Print of Venetian Window (16x24)

One of the best things to do in Venice is to just walk around and look at the buildings. You can see things that you will never see anywhere else: a book store half-flooded from the canal but still open for business; doors and windows hundreds of years old but still sturdy; layers of paint coming off to show layers underneath. Even in the midst of extreme urban decay, Venice is overwhelmingly beautiful.

I have this big print, 16x24, very nicely done on Hahnemuhle Photorag Fine Art paper, just waiting for a home.
