MobiColour RESULT: MC #38 Theme: ART - October 17-23

At last a chance to get some new shots of the graffiti in HK's Soho. I thought I had 'done' Soho when it came to graffiti but, boy, so much I haven't got before or that has changed and that was just in 40 minutes. London is vibey, Hong Kong is quirky. It was difficult to choose which ones to post without overwhelming the thread. I managed to get down to 6 of my favourites:

IPhone 7+. Only last one edited in Snapseed.

This one was really messy but loved all the signs and junk around.

These images are begging for a 'graffiti" thread, Anne - with all your other soho shots :)

The Ballerina (if I had room and money I'd buy this sculpture! Life size portrait sculpture at an antique shop in Leominster. Don't know the stone nor artist but it pulled my socks off of beauty)

Good night!

I like that sculpture, too, Gouvy :thumbs:
 
Okay MobiColorists, as much as I hate to close this beautiful art-filled thread :inlove: it's *that* time... Now it's up to deepop David to choose the winner(s). :eek:
 
I just knocked this off in a few hours. Easy-peasy.
This challenge was teeming with great photos, a great disorderly mass of beauty - selecting a few was too Herculean, so I selected many.

Overall winer of MC #38 is...
ImageArt. Ann's body of work this week had depth and breadth, including:
Perfect photo (color, leading lines, symmetry)

Wow, thanks, deepop. I have to say I loved this theme as I am sure you all realised :).

Congrats to the other honourable mentionables which were many! I loved seeing the art/graffiti from all over the world. A wonderful thread.

Now what for next week. I am in Singapore so do I come up with something really hard :sneaky:.

(PS. If champagne is classed as wine, I'm definitely a winer :lol:)
