THREE CORNERS - JULY
I chose Art as the theme this month.  I had such grand ideas of taking some shots of true African art, but I ran out of time.  LOL!  So, instead, here are 3 shots of different types of art that I see around me most days.

I took this one at the beginning of the month. It’s by far the best piece of graffiti around here. I think it’s incredible.
I took it in an open piece of ground between Darrenwood and Linden in Johannesburg.

I posted something similar a few days ago, but I just love these massive chess pieces. They’re about thigh height, on a massive chess board at Misty Hills hotel in Muldersdrift

And then I couldn’t resist taking these photos of Bradley tonight. He made this clown suit out of paper and cardboard at school today. I love all his artwork that he brings home!

Check out Lindy and Coreys blogs for their takes on the theme.  Can’t wait to hear what August’s theme is!

    love that graffiti!

  • That is one good looking piece of graffiti. Vibrant. I find myself wondering what is on the other wall?

  • That first shot is really eye-candy – VERY niiiiiice!

  • wow that first one really is amazing! There’s something about carved wood that really touches me so I love the second one too. Oooh and well Bradley is too cute for words and really gets into this months theme!!

  • Corey~living and loving

    ooooooooooooooooo you choose some great ones. :) I love the variety. :) all really different shots. well done.

  • fabulous. i love the one of bradley- he looks so chuffed with himself!

  • I can never get myself to do something like you have done here, shooting or post processing the image to be at an angle. I was taught to be more traditional in photojournalism, with level horizon lines and such. This is more art which I need practice. If you don’t mind, I’ll link to your blog for inspiration.
