Ralf

On every post of the High level Bridge across the river Tyne in Newcastle, RALF decided to spray his name.

I intentionally placed the post in the middle of the frame to make the viewer as uncomfortable as I was looking at this vandalism - a veritable blot on the beautiful Newcastle Quayside vistas.

Ralf, who ever you are - just jump the next time you're crossing.

I feel I should be saying something like the right to express yourself and one mans art is another mans graffiti but to be quite honest all I can see in this case is that some mindless idiot has learned how to spell his name .

By the way love the composition , spot on exposure and pin sharp from front to back , great thought provoking image . So I think I should thank RALF for that at least .

Thanks Mark. You're right about some graffiti is stunning, but this "person" is just a mindless nub.

He gave you a title.

Whether we agree or disagree about graffiti, at the very least he has given you a focus point to create a fantastic city-scape, which sets it apart from others.
