Official Graffiti, Post-Museum Cafe


Outside wall of the Post-Museum Cafe ( http://www.post-museum.org/ ), Rowell Road (off Jalan Besar). Looks like another official, commissioned graffiti. Unfortunately the wall isn't in good condition and some of the paint is peeling. 

Post-museum says that they won't be renewing their lease, are looking for another location. Not sure what will happen to the graffiti. 

  • Nikon D7000, 35mm f1.8
  • At 35mm, f4, ISO 1600, 1/30 seconds
  • Aperture priority, center-weighted metering, auto white balance
  • Picasa: Auto contrast, crop
Had to shoot at an angle, to squeeze more of the graffiti in. 35mm isn't wide enough and I was already backed up against a wall. One advantage of shooting at an angle is that you do compress the image horizontally, so you get more of the photo filled up, instead of a lot of black space at the top and the bottom.

Stopped down to f4 to get enough depth of field for the angle.
