Photo Journal: Bogota, Colombia Graffiti Art (Part II)

My post a week or so back, Part One of Bogota Street Art Photography, was well received, so I thought I’d knock out the other pictures I liked from my afternoon of wandering around looking at Bogota graffiti. With no further introduction, here you go and hope you enjoy:

Okaay, that one will stay with me for most of the day… Disturbing.
Love it nonetheless… great collection, Mike!

lol — I agree. Not sure I really looked at this one, until I started editing it. Then, I stopped and looked. And was… disturbed also.

Excellent photos mate!

Great photos — I especially like “the freak family — just like yours”. We all have them, and it’s not exclusive to our culture. Good to know…

Michael Hodson Post author January 27, 2011 at 9:41 pm

that family did make me smile — was such great art

Much like your previous graffiti photoessay, this one transported me to loved places. These photos are extraordinary and I sincerely hope there will be more series such as this one!

needing to get my photos organized, so I can get more of them up. Thanks for the complements!

Beautiful! I saw a lot of great art in Candelaria, Bogota when I was on my RTW trip. BTW, I saw the exact same ‘bearded man’ street art in NYC’s East Village last week! Must be a traveling street artist 🙂

Great follow up to essay #1. We have tonnes of street art here in Melbourne, but it always seems more exotic and cool somewhere else in the world (like most things I think!).

Arrrrgggg, wish I would have known that when I was in Melbourne. Played too much poker (badly) and didn’t take enough photos there.
