Here I is again. Let me start off by saying I apologize, for the limited few who actually visit my blog lol, that it's been a while. I've been lazy and busy. Mostly, I just haven't thought of things to blog about. But I've been taking pictures, as I usually do, of different things that catch my eye and I've been brainstorming about things I want to blog about. Even if not many tune it, I like to document it even for myself.
One brainstorm idea, at which I hope to keep up with, is a series I will call "Graffiti I See". There's plenty in the area I live. For the most part it's not interesting. Little gangster wanna-bees taggin' all over town bout what they 'claim'. Stupid s#!t. But every once and a while I find something cool. Something worth photographing. Couple weeks ago, I was getting ready for school, as I usually do. Got on the freeway heading en route, as I usually do... and I saw some graffiti that caught my attention. It was way cool. I wasn't able to snap it at that moment because its' like 4 seconds onto the freeway. My plan was to catch it the next day, HOPING maintenance hadn't noticed it yet and covered it up. So next day I remembered about it and got my camera ready before hand. Now I think I've posted before, about how I've gotten pretty good at taking pictures while I'm driving. I know, I know, I know....it's dangerous, but let me assure you I'm not speeding (even though I'm getting on to a freeway- its barely on the on-ramp so I'm not speeding quite yet anyway) and I'm NOT looking at what I'm shooting. I just sort of stick my hand out, wish myself luck that I get it and *CLICK*. Not till after do I check out what I captured. So I was pretty happy with myself that I got a pretty decent shot on my first try.
Here it is:
Whoever the artist was, past tense because it has been covered up since (you can see the cover-ups of past 'artists'), did a pretty good job. Kind of a random spot. But hey!, it was going to get noticed. It's a pretty busy on-ramp. It kinda looks like a huelga bird. Or one of those birds from an aztec calendar. This is the closest pic I could find online that resembles it.
Anyway, I thought it was pretty cool. Until next session. (Much sooner I promise.) Have a good day! =)
