 I was in Winnipeg end of the year in 2012, and shot 127 murals. I am headed back for another visit, and will shoot more murals. I’ve only posted 64 of the original 127, but hey, it’s nice to have extras!

Best I could do on a long shot with a pedestrian camera, and 8 lanes of vicious Winnipeg traffic between the Mural and I.

Winnipeg –  2006 Mural of the Year.

Jill Sellers was kind enough to provide photos of this 92 x 50 ft. mural taken when it was new.

My eye is drawn to smaller detail, of which there is plenty in this stunning mural. So I have kept some of my shots, taken years later when the mural had faded.

145 Market Street – As a clothing designer, this detail is especially pleasing to me.

Although Jill Sellers was the original conceptual artist she needed help to pull this off & insists the amazing artists, who contributed a lot, be duly credited.

Long, wide and quite far back to get the high up for this amateur photographer, but finding this airplane is a sweet memory.
