Notes From Cities
Notes from cities are everyday findings in the urban enviroment. The findings are usually small and sometimes hidden, but they illustrate the bigger picture of city life, culture, self-expression, art, architecture and urban dwellers.

Hanging Notes part 2.
More hanging notes in a city. This is intriguing and it looks like a mass destruction of foil balloons. Is it art or an accident?

Green on Grey
Try to imagine if it was possible to swap the distribution of these colors. However Green on Grey goes too as long as the residents wish to take care of the plants. If not, we´ll have just grey.
Moving Grass
Having motion in a park makes it interesting. This is simple: long, light grass and wind and it looked different on the way back. Liverpool.
Hanging Notes
Different theories exist on why people throw their shoes to hang on a line. Lonely shoes lying on streets hold even a deeper story within them. Where is the other one?

Stencil Humour
Street art and humour is not an easy combination. Most often it is best to use images instead of words. Zizkov, Prague.
Park Life
This park in London was really popular, and not only among kids. Simple and cheap yet so rare among regulated play areas and climbing racks. London, Green Park (?).
Co-existence
This is perfect co-existence. Above the skating area cafes, shops and concert halls. Graffiti is marking the area with an ever changing wallpaper. South Bank, London.

City Dip
The odd pair - heart of the city and a real beach with sand, joggers, children (and three pairs of identical shorts). The picture could be cut in half to be more "natural", perfect oddity to my mind. River Neva, St. Petersburg.
One Straight Line
I took this picture in Manchester trying to capture the fence horizontally straight in the picture. Then everything else tilted to an interesting effect.

Living Side by Side
Living happily side by side in Manchester. The city centre is full of odd pairs of buildings, but it works. It shows courage to make the disparity so visible.
