That place is one big graffity board.
Resizing the images doesn't do the good. I don't know how to change that.



Richard, special for you I'll select some pictures of graffity and wall art in another thread.

George, thanks, an interesting sequence of images. I knew about Nuit Debout, but had not realised they met at Place de la Republique.

As regards the graffiti..C'est la même chose partout!

I didn't know about it. I just went for a weekend. I wanted to make some photo's among the 1st of May demonstrations. Though the activities are concentrated in the evening, there was something in daytime too.

Attention for the illegals with no papers.




And a group of Egyptian Morsi followers.
