Montreal - January 3, 2009 (Day 3)
Matt loves public transit, so he needed to get an OPUS card and asked (made) me take a photo of him with it.
Opus One is opulent and rich in history. It is the merger between Baron Von Rothchild and Robert Mondavi. They make only one wine each year, just like the french, and just label it "Red Wine." It is supposed to be the best blend possible each year ... and they are as scientific about producing the most "perfect wine" as posible.
Looking out towards the Mayacamus Mountains. The driveway makes up the stem of the wine glass and the winery is the bowl.
I first started photographing graffiti in 1999, and in 2000 I setup a website to share my photos. Initially a mix of different subjects, but it soon became almost entirely of graffiti. I uploaded over 6000 photos to this site. Eventually Flickr came along a few years later and I started using that instead, and stopped updating the website. I shut it down completely a few years ago.
I occasionally get requests from people for photos of pieces by specific graffiti writers, and I thought it might be a good idea to upload them all to Flickr.
Most of these photos were taken on film, scanned, and saved at a small size, back in the day when people were still using 56k modems to connect to the internet and small filesizes were desirable. So apologies for the quality and size for some of these. Someday I'd like to get them all scanned in again at a higher resolution.
Like my photos? Buy me a coffee!
