This last entry is from a garage door in Feel Good Lane
In the narrowest of alleys is a testament of love. This shot is captured using the IPhone Pano setting sideways.
Clandestinos had a baby. The baby has a Guardian, a very scary and handsome one at that.
Nonetheless, the alley is almost impossible to shoot in, with my IPhone. So, I show it in dribs and drabs, beginning with the title above.
First up is this stunning violet coloured flower. Then some sweet flower buds.
The violet below is up so high I was only able to shoot this one pic.
This is the most I could capture in 1 shot, even using the Pano setting.
At the top end of the alley is the Guardian with a golden orange flower beneath.
No matter where I stood, this is the tallest I could capture. Yet, there is more on top of the purple mountains. Then I thought, why not use Pano sideways?
That is what resulted in the opening pic. It was difficult, as I had to use an upward arcing movement, which is a foreign sensation of movement.
Many times I began, then my wrist/fingers reacted oddly. This resulted in a split exposure. (above and below)

I have posted Muisca’s art before. Here are 2 pieces, in 1 post.
It’s always colourful, imaginative and sweet.
This first one is from Feel Good Lane.
Don’t get dizzy! I rotated this one, for fun.
This next garage door is from a bit earlier in the year.

This alley was painted as a tribute to Barry Luksenberg, who performed under the name “Feel Good”. At 24, he was killed in a motorcycle accident while travelling across Vietnam with a friend.
This is not the prettiest street art I have ever found.
I’ve put off posting it, for a couple of years.
Today it seems to express, in a way, my wonder at what we all did wrong to deserve this uber arctic torture.
-35 in this afternoon, and I had to hang onto a street sign for about 5 minutes. Otherwise, who knows where the wind would have taken me. The wind is blowing through my home at night. (nothing can stop it)

The Artis is unknown to me.
So, I found another painted alley.
I haven’t finished the last alley, or the one before that and a couple of others.
I figure I’ll just go back to posting those other alleys, soon.
This alley was painted as a tribute to Barry Luksenberg, who performed under the name “Feel Good”. At 24, he was killed in a motorcycle accident while travelling across Vietnam with a friend.
He and his crew “512” were based out of the St. Clair West neighbourhood, which hosts this lane.
This lane has been officially named by the city, as Feel Good Lane.

These doors are all in one alley.
It seems like a theme.
I like them all, a lot!
The one above is the only one that makes me dizzy. The piece below is the only one that is not a garage door.

Looks like this kitty is about to enter the wild of someone’s backyard.
It must be Emily!
She lives in Georgiann’s back yard, which is lush with plants and flowers in the summer. Now, it’s winter. Emily will stay in her cat house, and wait for spring.

Emily is the luckiest porch cat, ever!
