HFF everyone!

Excellente

Quality murals and a nice catch Andy
HFF and a great weekend.

Hello Andy what an interesting shot indeed

Wishing you a colourful HFF here and hope you have a good up and coming weekend

Best wishes ... Steve

Thank you Steve. Please read my reply to Peter Castell's comments for a bit of background.
Best,
Andy

HFF Andy, better than a lot you see, but why do they think it's acceptable to deface other peoples property and how do they afford all the cans of paint ???
A nasty dent in the crash barrier

All the points you raise, Peter concern me too (including the crash barrier dent; I do hope it wasn't as nasty as it appears!)
This is a walk I do 3-4 times a week between a mainline station and a new business centre. It is a 10 minute walk across a delapidated car park, and a building site that has been an eyesore since the onset of the recession. At least a bit of colour has been allowed to enter here. This is sponsored street art, the socialist Madrid city council (think Corbynism rather than Gaitskellism) gets some things right and my bone-grindingly dull walk has just got a little bit brighter. It will go, just as soon as the new business centre gets the fourth go-ahead (although with a sudden change of government, that could be another spaniard in the works!)

Hi Andy,

An interesting picture here!
HFF and have a nice weekend!

Thank you Fred!

Hola and a HFF to you Andy!

Hello Rrolf and welcome!

HFF, Andy. These are bright and colourful and I hope they aren't soon defaced by less talented idiots!

I fear it is already happening, I plan to upload my shots of these, (about 20) over the coming weeks, to preserve them in pristine condition for the record. I agree with Peter Castell that graffiti normally annoys me, but when authorised, and when it covers a derelict area and where the artwork is skillful and creative, then that is a different matter.

Superbe et bien vu ++++++
Happy blue Fence Friday

Amazing shot!

Très belles fresques
HFF Andy

You too, HFF Andy !

Very striking Andy. HFF, enjoy your weekend.

J'aime beaucoup !

I also used to resent the graffiti... but when it is good .. yes... it does bring some colour and humanity to what are usually dire places

HFF, Andy ! Have a very nice weekend !

Nice and colourful streetscape Andy.
HFF and a nice weekend.

IT certainly makes the concrete much brighter! I think it's a good idea to allow street artists to spray places like this, it can make a city quite attractive, as can be seen in Oslo or Berlin.
HFF, Andy!

I agree with Gudrun - I think the most cities have such ugly concrete places which will be much more nicer with graffiti and there are really artists, as we can see above!

HFF, Andy!

Excellent capture, love this type of art -- HFF and a nice weekend Andy.

very interesting capture! have a nice WE!!

Great capture, Andy !! HFF and happy week-end !!!!!!!!

hff Andy.... take care

Can they afford a Banksy I wonder ...
Great shot Andy and I agree that these murals that seem to be appearing in a lot of cities, are a great improvement on ugly grey concrete drabness.
HFF, have a great weekend.

lovely image........HFF

....................happy weekend:)

Murals and "murals"! Colourful at least I guess. HFF and have a great weekend, Andy.

HFF Andy. Have a good weekend.

Interesting scene!!! HFF, Andy!

Hi Andy,

A nice record of the pictures as the artist intended. Shall we re-visit in a few weeks when the delinquent youths with (ripped) falling down trousers and backwards baseball caps have had a go with their own paint sprays!

Best Wishes, HFF, and a good weekend
Peter

A superb HFF and a great shot Andy.

I really like well done Street Art (or graffiti, depending on your point of view), and this looks pretty good to me! Just the thing for adding colour and cheering up dull, dirty and boring urban landscapes.

A cracking shot mate. HFF to you and have a wizard weekend.

Lovely to see. I'm a great fan of street art. I feel like Keith and don't even dislike the efforts of delinquent youth.

I too have changed my views over the years. I still dislike it where it disrespects the property of others, but I have grown to appreciate it when well done, well sited and respectful of personal and corporate property (and quite, frankly, where some people start to say that one is less or more important than the other, there the slippery slope lies).

Nice shot, Andy.. HFF... Have a good weekend.

HFF Andy and a great WE!

HFF und ein schönes Wochenende!

Very impressive mural painting. HFF, have a fine weekend, Andy !
