Graffiti

Graffiti, are writing or drawings that have been scribbled, scratched, or painted illicitly on a wall or other surface, often within public view. Graffiti range from simple written words to elaborate wall paintings. Graffiti may also express underlying social and political messages.  There are many different types and styles of graffiti; it is a rapidly developing art form. 

Kensington is a distinctive multicultural neighbourhood in Downtown TorontoOntarioCanadaIt is an older neighbourhood and one of the city's most well-known. In November 2006, it was designated a National Historic Site of Canada

Most of the walls in the neighbourhood are painted with Graffiti.

I was indeed very fortunate to be able to photograph some of the wonderful pictures of Graffiti on the walls in Kensington and Chinatown area, during my visit to this historic place. 

Shot with Fuji 70 EXR, a point and shoot camera, when the battery in my Nikon D300 was totally discharged.
