I like it. Very edgy and urbanesque. |

I love walls, and these have tons of personality. They're very much here, but the spray-painted information makes me wonder if they're slated for demolition. Maybe I'd need specialized knowledge to decipher it, and so I'm already caught in uncertainty. What are those strange openings? Is the green algae or something? It's just this side of ominous, and the aforementioned uncertainty provides the energy that uplifts this image. |

I cannot think of what or where this is but I would guess the middle of nowhere ;-) Great find and nicely processed. |

a concrete essay that would unlock the universe, I'm glad it is still a secret. One of my top picks. |

What happened to "2", lol. I can see why you took this image, I too would stop and ponder what the heck is going on here. Nicely toned and composed. |

In the realm of Ubique...we all live by this compass. |

I am a committed fan of pareidolia. But that's not enough to get a picture across my finishing line and onto the podium. It's got to be more than just a happy coincidence; something with a further dimension. And this one is. How lucky you were to find the looming face being oriented by the spray painted directions? Unless you spray painted them yourself, in which case it's instead how naughty, but clever? But I proceed on the assumption that it's all objet trouvé.
I suppose some would think pictures like this a bit trivial; just a gimmick and not 'serious' photography. I mean, you just walked along, saw it, stood in the obvious place, and took a shot. Surely anyone can do that? But photography is exactly that; being there, recognising what you see, and then using a camera. Most camera owners start with the third of those, and then try to incidentally add the other two. But that's ass-backwards. And the result is far too many very skilled photographs of nothing.
So I like this because it's about why we take photographs; to assay our imagination, and to stick out our tongues at the world.
I smash a yellow thumb across your bows, and I thank you and all who sail with you.

OK, this is my favorite. What a great tribute to Ubique and at the same time a work of art. I love the colors, the graphics and the way you have processed it. I would frame this an hang it on a wall. Really fabulous. I wish it would make the top three but I am afraid it is too subtle, understated and wonderful for that. |

Interesting corner with codes painted on the walls. 3 and middle is west, that much I know. Nice find! |

One of those great finds ; some definitely meaningful scribbling for some that actually becomes a little piece of art for others |

I like how prominent the vertical texture is. I can't look at it without my eye being drawn downwards. The limited colour palette is very effective too. |

Great photo. Very well seen. Quirky, fun, pareidolia-ish, and a great capture of textures, lines and gradients that wash out. Title couldn't be better. I'd hang it on my wall and I bet Ubique'll love it. |
