Adelaide's Forgotten Outlaws


On my recent visit to Adelaide I wandered the streets of the CBD.
Hunting down a few of the mug shots by artist Peter Drew from his
Adelaide's Forgotten Outlaws series. 
These large format paste-ups bring a little piece of 
history back to the streets with scale and placement that is hard to miss.

These walls have a voice

 These walls have a voice.
 Still mucking about with AutoStitch on the iPhone
 This back alley parallel to Chapel Street 
is still fresh after being up for a few months. 
I need to come back soon with the DSLR.
