Urban Banalities


This gallery contains random snippets of urban life. The scenes have no particular meaning or purpose. They are meant to be expressions of commonplace everyday life in cities large or small.

Credit: The inspiration for this gallery came from Marisa D.L., whose Encomium of Banality left the word "Banality" engraved in my mind.

One of the best photographers I've ever seen, Rui Palha, said once to me that art is all over all one's got to do is see it.
The problem is just a few can see.

You can!
Congrats and thanks for sharig.
