On one hand, if it was just this time I wouldn't have said anything (obviously, otherwise it wouldn’t be a common characteristic of his work and wouldn’t have said ‘always'). It's something he uses quite a lot (too bad that you don't know his work, because despite him being overrated he’s one of the very few photographers working today that can create nice images sometimes).
On the other hand, the fact that this is a street issue doesn’t make the appearance of graffitis necessary (obviously).
And finally… isn't just beyond clichéd and old-fashioned using graffitis for street themed eds?
