Since photographing some great examples of graffiti in Manchester and Salford, I was keeping my eyes open for walls of Barcelona’s street art that I had heard so much about. Here I used a 18mm wide angle lens, so I could get nice and close to the walls and not get trees or street furniture such as signs or benches in my shots. As a result the straight lines of the wall are a little distorted (something that I could easily correct in Photoshop) but I choose to leave it as it came out of the camera. The colours of the spray paint are what drew my eye and made me capture this image.
Taking only photographs – leaving only footprints
