My Graffiti Mistake in Melbourne

This is one of the saddest posts I may ever write about.

As I write this, this is my saddest moment on this trip to date. No, I didn’t lose my backpack nor my wallet (knock on wood), but I lost accidently deleted my collection of graffiti photos in Melbourne before backing them up on my laptop. The saddest post I’ll write for sure.

I actually love this type of street art when it’s done tastefully. And I would consider Melbourne one the world’s great capitals of street art.

Q & I zigzagged the streets of New Brunswick and Fitzroy taking many photos along the way. There were really over a 100 great graffiti shots I took with my DSLR and they’ve fallen into the abyss. Luckily Q took some photos herself on our point & shoot (note: my DSLR had about 90% of the graffiti shots). But at least we have a handful to share!

This was only about half of the mega Jam Master Jay tribute wall.

First attempt to do a panoramic stitched photo.
This is what the software came up with.

I didn’t even want to write a post about this, but Q thought I still should because it was a big learning lesson for us, (for me). Make sure to TRIPLE check that you’ve backed up your photos before you delete them off your memory card.
