Earlier this week in Leith.

And enough windows, too

A colour photograph in portrait mode of a mural in Leith. The mural occupies the space of a former doorway into an old stone building, possibly a former warehouse. 

The mural shows a chameleon painted in black outline and the space filled with yellow, red and blue paints, creating a rather psychedelic image.
A colour photograph of a mural in Leith. The mural fills a wall, two storeys high, in a stone building, possibly a former warehouse, and consists of two images.

The lower image is a monochrome portrait of the face of a young woman. Her hands cradle her head. Across the image diagonally from top left to bottom right is a large red stripe. The red paint does not obscure the image below it.

The upper image of the mural shows some flower-like structures painted in blue and purple against a dark black background, so they look like they're in outer space. It has a very psychedelic vibe.
A colour photograph of a mural on a residential stone building, possibly a repurposed warehouse, in Leith. Between two windows, the height of one storey, the mural is the portrait of a young woman showing her head and torso. The woman is wearing a flak jacket bearing the word "PRESS" across her chest. She is smiling.

The background in the mural is a vibrant lemon-yellow. To the left of her head is the text "HEY EVERY ONE" and at the bottom of them mural is the text "THIS IS BISAN FROM GAZA AND I'M STILL ALIVE" with the social media tag @wizard_bisan1.

I sincerely hope the text is still true and that she is alive. (The Instagram account bearing her name still seems to be active.)

The mural shows a blue tit, it's head filling most of the mural. It is possible in a variety of shades of blue and is reminiscent of the flower of the violet. The background in the mural is in shadow of orange and yellow.

There's a chameleon just like that in Cardiff! It has a marvellous accompanying message about climate change and solidarity which eludes me at present.
Street art is the best.
