Euro Graffiti

These photos were taken in 2008 and I've since lost the larger, higher quality version, but I thought it might be nice to share some photos and it made sense to group them together according to location/theme.

Graffiti on Oscar Wilde's tomb in Lachaise Cemetery in Paris.

Paper and paste with tags in Belleville neighborhood in Paris.

Chunks of the Berlin Wall along Potsdamer Platz in Berlin w/open air museum.

A portion of the East Side Gallery. From Wikipedia: "The East Side Gallery is an open-air gallery in Berlin. It consists of a series of murals painted directly on a 1,316 m (4,318 ft) long remnant of the Berlin Wall, located near the centre of Berlin, on Mühlenstraße in Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg."

And I believed the characteristic pout began with the facebook selfie.

There are gaps in my history.

I really love these. Thanks for transporting me!

Thanks, both of you! I keep meaning to put together an Apple book of the photos from this trip back in 2008, but there are about 200-300 and it's a bit overwhelming. I lost *all* the photos I took a few years ago when Apple updated from iPhotos to Photos, but luckily I had these backed up on Flickr.

You should try to do a book, that would be a great idea. I'd love to see it. You can curate it and not use all 300.

I'm sure they would be curated a bit anyway, since I can't print the photos at full-page size and want to keep my page count (i.e. cost) down. But it's still a lot to sort through. Mostly I just want a hard copy for myself and to show friends.

Oscar Wilde, le flies, the wall, or the first, wonderful
