Had to drive south to Port Hueneme today. When I drive, I always am looking for things to photograph, things that catch my eye, things that tell a story. Today’s trip was no different.
Except this was NOT a ‘drive-by shooting’ ! ! ! I pulled to the side of the road to photograph this water tank.
Is it a sign of the times ? Or is it simply graffiti ? I might have to agree to both. But I thought it was appropriate . . . both from the ‘fear’ perspective and from the ‘I mean business’ attitude of both artists.
I added a bit of extra Lightroom enhancement to this image by increasing the saturation and using the clarity slider towards the negative position.
