Monday Mural

I'm joining with Sami and others for Monday Murals. 

Catching a tram is often a good option.

  1. Love them. And it is a reminder that I really need to travel on our trams, despite the fact that I cannot think of anywhere they currently go that I have any need to see.

    1. EC, not needing to go somewhere by tram never stops me from catching a tram. Window gazing, people watching, noting driving standards. All enjoyable for me. But you have your garden.

  2. I like how they made open windows out of the actual building windows in the second one.

  4. Judging by the first image Melborneos wear some strange costumes! Do you yourself have a top hat Andrew?

    1. Possibly YP. I think if I do, it may be a little dusty.

    1. Roentare, I think I know where the first one is but was. It has gone now. I can't remember where the second was.

  6. And where else would you be but Melbourne where the yellow and green trams rumble their way through the streets. That’s a very 1950/60s looking crowd in the top one. Good find Andrew

  8. I love the time line on the first. Very clever. The tagging content in the second makes me a little bit cross (knee jerk reaction) but it is also clever.

    1. Duh Caro. I didn't pick that up either. Yes, the tagging doesn't worry me.

  10. Green trams are such a core part of Melbourne history that it is a pleasure seeing them in murals. It is like the Eiffel Tower which could not be anywhere but Paris!

    1. We have so few of those cream and green trams now Hels, and they really are part of Melbourne's identity.

  11. They are both great murals Andrew. Before I enlarged the pictures I thought the second one was a real tram :) Thanks for participating in Monday Murals. I've added your post to the Monday murals.

  12. I like that second one especially, though it looks like it's been tagged. (Or is that part of the design?!)

  14. Both are so different and I like both. I like the second one because it takes the building into consideration.

    1. Indeed B&E, if a building can be incorporated into a mural, it is so much better.
