Weathered – photo challenge

Another photo challenge I want to catch up with had the theme ‘weathered’. Everything on the planet has to face wind, rain, sun, or other nature spectacles. Hence, with time, colours and materials get washed out or ‘weather’. Especially street art and graffiti faces these natural influences on a daily basis. Therefore, it is anContinue reading “Weathered – photo challenge”

Pedestrian – photo challenge

This week’s photo challenge of the Daily Post is about ‘pedestrian’. The word is most commonly used to describe a person who is walking. However, as an adjective, the word means ‘dull’ and describes something that is boring or dry. Maybe the connection between the two definitions of the word is that a person walkingContinue reading “Pedestrian – photo challenge”
