My views on the above and some…
For this week’s photography challenge, I present to you the story of creation, except that it is about the creation (and probably decline) of a street art. I captured these in various location in and around Padua, Italy, during our recent trip. I thought that they fit the theme well. What do you say?
When we went out on Sunday, we had the pleasure of going through Regent Street, London which had these beautiful displays throughout. Here are a few of them.
I half expected people to break out in a flash mob and sing some Christmas songs! 😉
Last time I was in London I was so happy to go around the Camden Town area and capture some of the amazing Street Art that were on display. I took almost 2 hours to walk through these streets and capture each and every one of them. I made it into a series called ‘Wall & Art‘. There was one that I couldn’t capture last time. It was this one from the Kentish Town.
For some reason, I never had my camera every time I would walk by that place. This time too I did not have my camera, but used my phone to capture the same. And was so happy when it came out well.
Post for this week’s Stream of Consciousness Saturday prompt.
Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is: “art.” Write a post regarding “art,” be it an object or a name. Note: I’m not asking you to draw something, but if you’d like to, we’d love to see that too! Enjoy!
Moments are precious; sometimes they linger and other times they’re fleeting, and yet so much could be done in them; you could change a mind, you could save a life and you could even fall in love. – Cecelia Ahern, How to Fall in Love
This is the last photograph from the set I had taken in London during my last trip. I am here again (in London, of course) for a very short duration, but I am not sure how my schedule is going to be. I hope you enjoyed the series of precious moments that I had the pleasure of capturing through my photographs and sharing it with you. It was more fun to find appropriate and relevant quotes for each of these photographs. And I thoroughly enjoyed presenting each and every single one of them.
If I happen to capture some more I will make it to Season 2 😉 Until then, thank you for joining me in this Wall & Art series.
Hopefully I will find something else to start a series on, sooner 🙂
I wonder why does ev’rybody look at me
And then begin to talk about a Christmas tree?
I hope that means that ev’ryone is glad to see
The lady in the tutti-frutti hat.
The gentlemen, they want to make me say, “Si, si,”
But I don’t tell them that, I tell them, “Yes, sir-ee!”
And maybe that is why they come for dates to me,
The lady in the tutti-frutti hat.
Some people say I dress too gay,
But ev’ry day, I feel so gay;
And when I’m gay, I dress that way,
Is something wrong with that?
No!
Americanos tell me that my hat is high,
Because I will not take it off to kiss a guy;
But if I ever start to take it off, ay, ay!
I do that once for Johnny Smith
And he is very happy with
The lady in the tutti-frutti hat!

You can watch the whole song here (and may be move your body a bit too 😉 ) It is a really fun one.
