Graffiti-Train tracks

Graffiti-Train tracks

As much as I disapprove of graffiti in theory, (it is, after all, vandalism), there are obviously some very talented people engaged in it.
If I were to shoot this over; which I can not, the wall having been painted, I would probably remove the sticks from the tracks.

Ria, this is really nice. Surprised there have not been other comments. I like it just the way you presented it...sticks and all. And yes this is some very good art work, both yours and theirs.
 
the sticks did not bother me at all, my eye was drawn to the tracks first and then the graffiti. I like it as it is.
 
Thank you for all comments.
As regards the sticks: I was aware of them when I made the shot, but as I generally refrain from changing things in a scene that I am shooting, (beyond picking up the odd bit of litter in an otherwise pristine landscape, perhaps), I left them as they were. It is possible, just possible, mind you, that I tend to over-analyze things later which leads to me second guessing myself. I really should stop that.
 
Very nice, indeed! I looked at it several times and it drew different levels of interest and "story" each time.
 
I like this image and the sticks don't even register for me. I am first drawn to the RR tracks and then my eye moves up to the painting of the woman.
