 This was a fun challenge. It was interesting to find sooo many great things to photograph. The talent that is out there with the "Street Painting" is amazing. If my entry doesn't do well, at least I learned a ton about this street art.

My image depicts two sets of different letters on different train cars. I had no idea what they were or if they meant anything at all. I assumed the cars were arranged this way due to randomness. But thank goodness for Google! I found out that the letters "SOJA" are the name of a band. And the letters "RTDK" is the name of an actual artist here in Denver that created numerous pieces here in Denver and maybe other locations as well. I didn't spend a bunch of time researching this information since I had to get some work done today too! Regardless, it's pretty cool to learn about the photos that we take and present to others.

With the triple letter and the double word, that's 64 points.
