Just a few images of old ghost wall signs that are nearby in the rural towns of Taylor, Granger and Bartlett, Texas.

    Great set. Wall art like this really tells an interesting story of how we communicated in the analog world (before the internet that is)!

    Like Randy, I am a wall art, ghost art, graffiti fan as well.

    I think of wall art like historical artifacts, well worth saving.

    I suspect some of these images have been edited in some manner, other than straight out of the camera.

    Care to comment on processing used for these?

    Sure. Cropping, exposure adjustments in ACR then curves, levels and selected color adjustments with output sharpening applied in CS5.
