The Steam Locomotive
Where reality and make-belief meet ...
Mural Art in Vancouver - here a real trompe l'oeil that fools the eye into believing the scene is real .... the backs of a row of low shops on Grandview Highway - incorporating an old railline.

: ))))))))) i'm smiling because i did mistake it for a "real train", when i saw it in the thumb, thinking you'd changed your subject and started a new series! glad to discover you'r still "into" murals! ; )) and what a great one this is!!! your composition with iron fence running through the shot and the steely car racing (or so it seems ; )) the steam engine makes it stand out and shine! hugs, sabine.Sally Dunn 25/02/2012 11:19
Blimey that's amazing!!! From the thumbnail I thought it actually was a locomotive producing clouds of steam! It works because of the real railway line in the forefront and whoever painted the steam did a FABULOUS job, it is such a great picture.Hugs

Wow, toll! Würde mich interessieren, wie es durch den Zaun durchfotografiert aussieht, vielleicht verliert es sogar an Wirkung, aber neugierig wär ich trotzdem ;-)LG monika
