Monday Mural Moustaches

Nothing to wonderful today as I join with Sami and others for Monday Mural. I give you the mostly moustached men of Balaclava. I wonder if nicely painted shop fronts might look better.

  1. A hair raising experience looking at all that facial lip foliage.

    1. A good question EC. There was also a controversial image painted and was soon removed after protests.

    1. Roentare, an even better alliteration, Monday Mural Movember Moustaches. I should have saved it for November.

  6. Interesting, though I'm not a fan. The last one made me laugh with the 40% off entire baby. I understand the sales advertising, but out of context it's hilarious. Be well!

  8. In the olden days, I drove to wonderful Balaclava and did all my shopping there. Now I only buy stuff at local shops, within easy walking distance from home.

    1. Hels, I suppose shopping for a family meant you needed a car, but you must have hopped the 3 or 16/69 at times.

  10. I don't like them. If I was the type to have nightmares I'd worry, but thankfully I don't.

    1. I don't either River. I'd rather see nicely painted shops.

  11. Not the most attractive, particularly the last three. Beauty and the beholder, I suppose.

    1. JB, there is certainly a theme but I have no idea what it is about. Not attractive at all. Best not to look up when in the street.

  12. Documenting the streets, as they are.

  13. That is all quite odd, Andrew.

  14. My favourite would be the 4th one. I wonder if they portray local residents. Thanks for participating in Monday Murals Andrew.

  15. The murals are well painted, but the guys are so ugly ! BTW it's amazing but Nicole is still beautiful, you would never think that she is dying ! She still has her lovely face without wrinkles only the eyes have no expression anymore.

    1. Gattina, they are of very plain appearance. So very sad about Nicole.

  16. It seems like many of them are by the same artist. Are they local characters, or famous people I don't recognize? (I think I see Elvis in one of the more detailed murals, fourth photo, second face from the left.)

    1. Steve, they are not famous enough for me to recognise them. If could be Elvis. Unfortunately the CCTV camera is in the way.

  17. I did not know you worked in public transport. I learned something new:) The pictures were fascinating.
