Here one day…

Mural at a construction site in NoMa that we’ve seen several times. I finally decided to stop and photograph it before it disappears. The amount of development going on in this area is simply unbelievable. The mural was painted by Emon Surakitkoson for the Pow! Wow! DC 2020 international mural festival.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly
unsharp.

A different take, posted earlier:

1/125s f/1.6 at 5.1mm iso32 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Oh I like this one. Perfect to hide construction and add interest to the block. V

I like the strong contrasts and graphics. Interesting capture with the utilitarian buildings in the background. V

Wonderful geometrical composition.

That would be cool even as a permanent mural!

That's a really good way of hiding the construction site and makes an attractive addition to the streetscape. The composition works very well. V

A lovely mural nicely captured in the context with those new buildings.

Interesting that the mural is in mono and not vivid colours, and it stands out for that. If those highrises are any indication, you have a lot of high density development going on. V

Nice Mural in monochrome is seems with a colorful background. Nice composition delivering a nice perspective to the Mural, Very nice resolution for sure. Vote

The clarity and DOF give me a good view down the entire length of the mural. Love all those geometric shapes in the background.
