Seen in San Francisco

by theholmesteader, posted in International, Street Art, Travel

Followers of this page know that I visited San Francisco during my recent trip to the USA with my mate Jim.  Whilst there, I was on the lookout for some good street art and I wasn’t disappointed, I thought myself lucky to find two original Banksy’s, but I wasn’t so lucky with the weather on the day I visited the Mission District where the majority of the art was found.

Most of the photographs can be seen on the following San Francisco page, I have split the city into three distinct areas, the City Centre, Haight Ashbury and The Mission and each can be seen separately.  There was so much art to be seen that I’m sure I missed plenty and I would love to go back to capture more, this time in better weather though,

Many of you may know that my mate Jim and I have just returned from a trip to America, we had a great time despite having some bad weather while we were there, we visited San Francisco, Las Vegas, The Grand Canyon, and finally, New York and had a fabulous time.

You can read all about our great trip in the Jim Jimmies on Tour in the USA page.

I’ll post the street art photographs taken, in each location, during the trip later.

Street Art Reykjavik

A quiet day at home sorting out some of the many photographs taken during my recent trip to Reykjavik in Iceland.  Despite the snow and ice, there was plenty of colour on offer, not only were the old buildings colourful, there were hundreds of murals on display.  I have posted photographs of the significant ones here.

Iceland Trip

I’ve just returned from a trip to Iceland with my friend Jim Lewars, we had great fun exploring the city, visiting many of its famous sights. We also went on a couple of tours, one around the golden Circle and another out to see the Northern Lights.  While there I also took many photographs of the Street Art in the city, so much that it will take me a little longer to post the images on the site.
