  • Please, I can’t breathe

    A mural on a wall in Santa Barbara shows George Floyd, and his words, “PLEASE, I CAN’T BREATHE”.

    The mural was painted by Griffin Lounsbury and Chad (Chadillac Green) Westmoreland. Here’s an article about the mural by a local newspaper.

  • Damrak by Night

    Houses by the water's edge are lit up and reflect in the still water. It's a night shot.

    The Damrak in Amsterdam is a street in front of the main railway station of the city, where you can see the beautiful reflection pictured here.

    If you’re lucky, the water will be as still as it was the night I photographed it. The reflections of the houses there are eye catching!

  • Phone or dog?

    Sometimes when out with your dog, they’re second in line for your attention after your phone.

  • Cruising in my car

    A man in sunglasses looks out from his car window as he passes us. The photo is framed by the window of the car I'm in.

    I had no idea what make this car was when it drove past, but Google Images says it’s probably a Cadillac of some sort from the 1960s. It looked beautiful, whatever it was, and the guy driving knew it too.

  • Bored of Ducks

    A bored looking man behind a counter in a shop full of rubber ducks, including a huge one to the right of the photo.

    As they say, “When you’re bored of ducks, you’re bored of life.” I hope he had an exciting evening when he finished work!

  • Handy on a skateboard

    On the Grand Parade, Cork, a few years ago, I was waiting around and saw a few guys on their skateboards. They were having fun. 🙂

    The public toilet with the striking mural in the background was removed in the last year or so.

  • Music on the street

    Three people sitting against a wall. Two are playing instruments, the guitar and saxaphone and the other person is smiling and enjoying the music. They have a box in front of them with a sign saying, "YOU ARE LOVED".

    Three people sitting against a wall at one end of the Beurspassage in Amsterdam. They were really good, and it was nice to see people enjoying themselves playing music.

  • Stop Shell Hell in Mayo!

    A woman stands behind a desk with the text, "Stop Shell Hell in Mayo!" printed on a covering on it. She is talking to a passer by, attempting to get a signature. Other people walk behind.

    Remember the Shell to Sea protests that wanted to stop Shell from bringing natural gas from the Corrib Gas Field ashore. They wanted Shell to refine the gas at sea.

    According to the Wikipedia page for the group, Shell exited the project in 2018.

    This photo is from April 15th, 2006.

  • You are included

    A train painted in the colours of the Pride Flag with the text "EVERYONE IS WELCOME HERE #YouAreIncluded" printed on it. A young woman waits to cross the road.

    A train passing by on a street in Amsterdam caught my eye. It’s painted in the rainbow colours of the Pride Flag, with EVERYONE IS WELCOME HERE #YouAreIncluded printed on it!

    #YouAreIncluded was the theme of the 2023 Pride Amsterdam, and it was nice to see the colours still there.

  • Wheels in Santa Monica

    A mural called Wheels in Santa Monica, framed by trees and a parked van. The mural is in the shape of a wheel with circles at the end of each spoke.

    Wheels is a mural made by artist, Anne Marie Karlsen from ceramic on 2nd Street in downtown Santa Monica, but I didn’t know that when I saw it. The vibrant colours and design caught my eye, framed by the trees and a parked van. More about it from here:

    Anne Marie Karlsen created Wheels, an ambitious and vibrant ceramic tile mural that adorns the west-facing wall of Parking Structure 8 on 2nd Street in downtown Santa Monica. The artwork reveals different compositions depending on one’s vantage point and the wheel motif is loosely inspired by the structure of the recently retired Pacific Wheel on the Santa Monica Pier. Upon closer examination, viewers will discover that the abstracted shapes in the circular forms are in fact, photographic images the artist took of the Pacific Wheel in motion. The composition is meant to create the sort of whirling, topsy-turvy effect that one experiences on an amusement ride. The artwork acknowledges a part of Santa Monica history, while simultaneously becoming a bold new design for the future.
