Great shot of the graffiti, but I'd like to see the people who created the art too.

I would have cropped this just a bit tighter to eliminate the post on the left-hand side of the image. It is mildly distracting to the overall image, which would still be just as striking without the left edge, as it is now.

nice, altough the grass is oversaturated ... the composition could be much improved ... nevertheless the colors on the wall are very nice

The angle of this shot doesn't feel comfortable to me.

This is really a great "topic", and so worthy re this challenge.....
I also love the four differant horizontal panels, each adding so much interest to this great image.....

It's a very nice photo, but somehow the angle is a bit disturbing to my eyes.

I would get right in close on this. With no people to provide context you need to overwhelm us with the power of the iamges.

I would think that a headline like that would show the youth painting over the graffiti. Front pagers tend to have a lot of human involvement.

Love the colours. Wish it weren't tilted. I would have cropped out the light pole.

Yes, this seems to be a good local interest photo. Straighten it up a bit though.
