Graffiti on Novy Most -> Wormfood

The ability of Flickr to keep people in touch with events around the world really came into its own last week during the terrorist attacks on London - several news outlets linked to, or borrowed pictures from, the London Bomb Blasts Pool.

It isn't just big events though, it is also the small details. I noticed last night, via Meneldur leaving a comment on one of my photos, that Nový Most in Bratisalava has been repainted a dull uniform steel grey. I was there earlier this year, and intend to visit again next year. By that time I presume that the bridge will have an entirely new set of graffiti, hopefully as impressive as the examples that I photographed back in January this year.

I love that such ephemeral beauty is collected and kept. We've got some really talented artists here in Vancouver, too - my favourite is the Dark : http://www.flickr.com/photos/goddess_spiral/25079905/in/pool-vancouvergraffiti/
