DP Theme Day - Street Art



It's March 1, and the first of the month is always a theme day at the Daily Photo community; today, it's graffiti or street art. I found this mural painted outside of a Chandler icon - Elmer's Tacos - yummy breakfast burritos

Almost looks like a real street with buildings. I notice a lot of pretty murals near Mexican restaurants.

Jim Klenke said...

A very good mural, I agree with RR, it looks like a real street next to Elmers.

Jilly said...

what a pretty mural. Love it. Perhaps not the burritos tho. I remember being served one of these for breakfast on a Northwest Flight - something I was quite unused to and couldn't eat it!

Southern Heart said...

Very pretty, and colorful!

Felicia said...

I like the trompe l'oeil effect! And the colors are nice too.

Fénix - Bostonscapes said...

So very pretty! And, from this perspective, it really fools the eye. Love it. I also featured a Mexican restaurant today, but the murals couldn't be more different.

He he he I love it. Gives a lovely sense of space and location.

Eric said...

Nice angle, I had the same feeling as everybody, it really looks like a real street!

Uma por Dia said...

Neva said...

That is just beautiful and would be welcome anywhere. The perspective, the colors! Oh the colors are wonderful. Here is my CDP: Street Art entry (too late for the list). Thank you.
