some graffiti art from derby

went out exploring with my camera today - some shots are a bit grainy due to being taken at dusk, but tbh this just adds to them, i think! anyone else into graffiti?

Nice set of photos showing some 'urban art'.
Think you've captured the graffiti well and it makes a good subject, interesting and colourful.

have been clocking locations, but unfortunately whenever i spot some i don't have my camera, then when i have a chance to return it has been cleaned/painted over(!). am hoping the snow will deterr the council graffiti squad for a few days so i can check up on locations i have noted...i did find this at Wollaton Hall (Nottingham) the other day though:

I like the texture you've got here. But I prefer the colour graffiti. I think graffiti should be colourful.

I agree. It's the colour that grabs me usually...!

My local town used to have a wall that was set aside for graffiti. There was some pretty good art up on the wall, but it's gone now.
The only graffiti you tend to see here is tags. They are rubbish.
Technically graffiti is criminal damage so people have to be careful.
