Theme Day - Graffiti...Dining With Dinosaurs

Dining with Dinosaurs?
I just love this wonderful piece of glorious graffiti don't you? I noticed it while on one of my Melbourne Walks. They say art imitates life, well imgaine if art came to life - think of the mad scramble there'd be!
I don't think many would want to be din-dins for this fellow! Look at those teeth...

I am going to my daughter's for a day or two and will visit on my return. May you all have a lovely Friday and a safe weekend. God Bless.

Today's quote: Dinosaurs may be extinct from the face of the planet, but they are alive and well in our imaginations ~ Steve Miller, Freaks!

Rob Siemann said...

Glorious is the word, for this half dino, half boar. I'd feel a bit nervous sitting on one of these tables.

If I remember it right, it's a part of an ancient picture; please excuse for not knowing the name now, guess it was something starting with L.

Great find indeed. Please have a good new month and Friday too.

Amazing work ! love this graffiti

Hilda said...

LOL! That's a humorous, though grim, choice of graffiti for what looks to be an outdoor dining area.

Mo said...

Think it might put me off my food

Not what you want to see while eating.

I'll want to sit with my back to the dino ;-)

That's the wall of an eatery? Wow, what an idea! :)
God bless you!

I like this dinosaur! It looks surprisingly good on the wall.

Hope you had a great time with your daughter. :)

wow, that is a very artistic post for graffiti. I like it. I am glad you liked the London travel photos on our travel website www.vivalavoyage.com In answer to your question about copyright, what you create is copyrighted and you can see we added a copyright sentence on our websites that you can mirror for your site. However, many people like to put a watermark on their photos to protect them further. You can do so but need to put the watermark on before you post your photo each day on your sites. Samples of watermarks are Sam at versaillesdailyphoto and chateaubriend and there are quite a few city daily photo bloggers who use a watermark.

I'm glad you like this graffiti...but I'll pass. And I'd probably eat somewhere else, too. Just don't like sharing my dining space with monsters! :-)
