Abandoned Street Arts by Pøbel
One might argue that street art is meant to be seen, that the very nature and central location of a wall-based mural is to have as many eyeballs upon as possible, to maximize its range and potency. Pobel, however, took the opposite approach: stenciling his art on abandoned buildings and dilapidated shacks in bumfuck nowhere, so the art becomes the photograph of the obscure locale, instead of the mural itself.

Japanese Manhole Covers
Let’s discuss everything you know about manhole covers: they keep you from falling in sewers, they’re like front doors for Ninja Turtles, and there was a little known computer game called The Manhole in 1989 that pretty much trumped the Oregon Trail when it came to wasting time on the school’s primitive Apple Macintosh. But did you know that they also make incredibly ornate manhole covers in Japan? They’re so popular that there’s an flickr group dedicated to the decorated covers you walk all over.
