As my photography mentoring gets busier, it feels like the right time to simplify. I’m starting a new weekly series—sharing one of my photographs along with a few thoughtful words of encouragement. These aren't simple photography tips as such, but more like life inspiration through photography—a mix of visual with meaningful reflections.

What does fascinate me is the range of imagery, and there is an increasing fascination in the whole genre of street art, and the artists involved, both well-known such as: Jean-Michel Basquiat, Banksy, Keith Haring, Shepard Fairey, and Os Gemeos; and the unknown "urban art guerillas"

A late evening preamble by the lake to the side of this wart, is an enjoyable experience, and we partook. Aware of the difficulty with exposure in these conditions, where the eye/brain is so clever, but a camera is not, I took a short series of photos to help you sort your images, and to inspire you to experiment.
