Thank you for hopping along on Equinoxio’s Time-Space shuttle. Enjoy the rest of the week. “Beam us down Scotty.” 🙂

Great shots, love street art.
Glad.
The more I delve into street art, the world over, the more fascinating I find it. Great talent everywhere.
Be good, Coeur de feu.
Always, be careful out there with that street art! We do enjoy it very much Brian. Beauitul!!
🙂
(Why careful?)
(There are a few places here in Mexico city where I’ve just passed through in car, where I would love to stop and photograph. But the areas are not too safe)
From what I’ve seen wall art is not always in the nicest part of town.
Yup. Some of the best is actually in “dangerous” parts.
I appreciate street art…I would love to create some like these here in etown…have a happy day Brian 🙂 smiles hedy
Thank you Hedy. You too.
Now wouldn’t that be a great idea.
Municipalities (City councils?) are increasingly open to the idea of street art. Worth a try.
Very much enjoyed the trip. The level of talent never ceases to amaze. I thought the first was my favourite until I saw the rest, then gave up choosing one.
The only thing I strongly object to is being returned to a place called ‘dow’. I have never been there, I did not buy a ticket to go there and I reject your impertinence to simply inform me that that is where I will be dropped off or ‘beamed’ sire.
My dearest Daphne, I do understand your dismay. “Dow” would be a sort of boat, somewhere East. I’m afraid I will have to double-check Scotty’s corrector. (Thank you ever so much for pointing out this dreadful, unacceptable typographic error)
Now on the next trip, we can drop you in Hyperspace at your request. However I must emphasize that the Hyperspace suit is not included in the fare. And temperatures are close to zero Kelvin. (We do accept American E-Stress though)
Yours truly,
Reginald.
In line with your favourite hero’s resolution to all things, Scotty should be fired forthwith.
Also in line with your favouite commander in chief, well done for accepting the praise for the trip and scapegoating Scotty for the negatives! 😀
Darn. Caught red-handed. Scotty is a fine gentleman. Always takes the blame without a word of complaint.
Spectacular as usual, Brian!
Dankie Dina. Glad you liked it. 😦
Always, dear friend!
Flattery will get you anywhere. 😉
Have a lovely week-end in Namibia.
Tot ziens
Jip, I know! Lovely week end for you as well, Brian.
🙂
Love the Florence and Angkor Thom street art. It really is street art!
It is. 🙂 I like – apparent – contradictions. Streets anywhere have always been full of art. Just a matter of looking around. 🙂
Take care my dear.
Thanks, you too!
SUPER!!! nous en avons pas mal ici, à Toulouse et j’en suis tjs admirative pour leur talent…
N’est-ce pas? Compliments pour ta nouvelle photo. Bon week-end.
Striking stuff. I wonder when the Prissy Prude Society is going to insist that twiddly bits in Florence must be covered up?
That painting of Aung San Suu kyi makes her look everso beheadicated. Somebody’s wishful thinking?
Florence: I think we are safe as long no Saudi dignitary visits.
Aung San etc.? I thought the same. Maybe a Rohingiya?
Her alleged part in that seems uncharacteristic.
I have yet to see or read a declaration on her part. I sense (but then I might be third-world paranoid) that her new “freedom”/responsabilities may be more limited than one could think. I suspect a deal, oriental-way: you can do or say certain things, but do not interfere with others. Who knows?
This was pleasing to the eye… your shots look really good 😊
Thank you. And have a great week-end.
Great time to you too Brian.
🙂
Nice trip. And instructive, at times. 😉
Belgian fireworks beats them all though. (yes, I know you fancy belgian comics 🙂 )
Have a great weekend, mon ami! 🙂
I know you know. That was quite a poetic comic from the 60’s and 70’s.
(You too)
It will be interesting to see if Aung San Suu kyi is remembered for recent news or for What she was instrumental in doing in the last twenty years. Sadly I presume it will be for recent atrocities.
Sadly yes. Though my “take” on the matter is that she can’t really do anything. Even tough there were elections, and she is now part of the government, I don’t think the military have actually relinquished their power… We’ll see. (A former Boss of mine’s wife is Burmese, and they know her well. Meet with her every time they go to Burma. I’ll ask him his POV next time I see him)
Could be. I hope you are right. The language she has used though seems contrary at times like she was defending it but maybe I’m wrong or not seeing enough of the news to really know.
Yeah. I don’t know. I think I haven’t had enough information.
Plans for the week-end?
Me too. Not to say anything with any authority anyway.
Family Saint Patrick’s day party. Did taxes today. Nothing Sunday.
Oh yes. Happy Saint Patrick to all. 🙂
What about you? Anything fun planned?
Nothing special. Recovering all form a nasty flu. 🙂 We’ll see what happens during the week-end. Take care.
The flu has been tough this winter. Feel better.
Thank you. almost out the woods. 🙂 (I hope you and yours escaped from the flu)
We had it at Xmas time. It was terrible.
I can imagine. Particularly when there are a lot of “social” occasions. Everyone passes the bug, regardless of careful one is. Are your parents vaccinated?
They sure are. We all were. They both got it too.
So are we all. Doesn’t eliminate the risk totally, but MD daughter chases everyone with needles in the Fall and says that even if we catch it, it should be weaker.
I think the same thing. Worth the risk to not get something in my opinion.
Absolutely. I am totally in favour of vaccines. (Living in Asia and Africa, we got shots almost every year when we came home for the annual medical check-up at Air France.)
Brian, such splendid street art. I enjoy the contrast of the now and the old. Enjoy the rest of your day.
(U2)
Now and old? Yes. The contrast – to me – shows that (hu)mankind has not changed that much. Always the same concerns. Love. Happiness. Spirituality. But I too like the contrast. (Maybe that is why I love History) 🙂
Be good Mia
Brian, you always share such lovely photos. I don’t think we can get away from ourselves, now or then. Impossible. Indeed it’s what make us human, telling our stories in the form of art is a big part of it. Thank you for your thoughts. 🙂
My pleasure Mia. Blogging is an interesting “means” of expression. (So is the great people one meets)
😉
Be good.
Love the street art photos Brian! And yes, Aung San isn’t popular with the Rohingya but her language against this group is not supportive, so not surprising…sadly, she is a puppet for the military.
A puppet or a hostage? I don’t know. I will ask my former CEO whenever I meet him. Ciao ciao
Interesting question 😉
Awesome shots Brian! Salutes to these artists!
Thank you Trisha. 🙂
Street art has become so omnipresent that I fear it will become commonplace. Great photos, however.
Thank you. I agree with you: massification does reduce quality. But then… one has to become more selective… 😉 I’m in Bogota right now where there is a lot of st art. Some very bad some very good. I’m making plans with my niece to go street art hunting this week. 👀
splendid street art creations you have captured:)! well done
Dankje wel. 😉
