Random spot in San Francisco. Tried use an an angle to combine the graffiti from the three different concrete walls into one big mural. I hope some people enjoy it. I have a feeling that without any people in the shot, I might not do as well...hahaha.

Sorry, but I rated quite low because this seems too chaotic. There is no composition or story being told. No sense of scale in this. Maybe this is for someone who enjoys graffiti.
i understand the concept of photography of things "street-like", but i believe the challenge was looking for something a bit deeper. your composition is interesting with the colors and shapes, but i feel it borders on stealing other's art...of course you could probably say that about photographing anything man-made, so nice angle on the colors.
i was so close to submitting a sot very close to this until i went for another.
After looking at this again I think a heavier saturation would have been really good here.
On first pass through, I dismissed this photo as a straight shot of a graffiti daubed wall, but on revewing I see I was quite wrong. The angles of the different parts of the building make for an interesting composition, although it is a shme that they are not a little more accenuated. I wonder if a little burning of the inverted C might help draw attention to it?
I don't see a focal point. The graffiti is colorful but without some reference, such as a person walking by, a trash can, a horizon, a sidewalk, etc....this is just a 1 dimensional photo of someone else's art.
