Date: Early November 2009.
Location: The back wall of an industrial/commercial building along Central Street, Vancouver British Columbia, Canada (between Station Street and Western Street). Google Maps has a nice Street View showing the location and the panels. Central Street is just a 5 minutes walk south from the Main Street Skytrain Station.

Misc. Notes: This is the eighth part of a series of approximately 25 photographs of the mural and graffiti art panels along Central Street in Vancouver I plan on posting here on Graffiti Near Me. From some of the other panels where the artists tagged their own work, it seems these panels went up around 2007. This mural depicts dark vibrant blue graffiti text overlooking the city-scape of buildings with the beautiful North Shore mountain skyline in the distance. I am unable to descipher the graffiti text, but it appears similar to the artist’s tag in the lower right corner of the photograph – if you can make out what it says, please share in the comments section of this post. If anyone has information about this particular panel, please also share your thoughts. As always, I’d be totally cool if the artist could make some comments about this work.
Technical Notes: The photograph was taken with an Olympus Stylus 300 digital camera (a point-and-click). (Check out cameras and photography equipment on Amazon.com
