Southsea Street Art

Southsea Street Art
A huge department store in Southsea finally closed down after being in trouble for some years. While a decision is made about the building the council covered the windows and seem to have allowed local street artists free rein. The results can be quite spectacular. I took his in the rain, hence the slight reflections on the pavement.

Go large, if you must!

Oh I like the slight reflections Keith! Much better than seeing shops plainly boarded up. Sadly department stores are becoming a thing of the past now, like so many of the old clothes stores I used to enjoy in the 60's and 70's. Very well captured.

Have a good remainder of the BH weekend & take care.

Cet oiseau n'a pas l'air du tout satisfait de la fermeture du magasin. Peut être y avait-il des actions ?

I don't think anyone was pleased that the store closed Jean Paul. Although if it hadn't this bird might not have existed. Thanks for dropping by!
