I’ve come again, haven’t I? I remembered how last year I brought out my collection of photos for you to help me select from in order to decorate my wall. Well, I’ve given all those ones I printed away to people who wanted them when the time came. And I’ve looked at my apartment and office walls again today to find them really bland. They need colour and vitality, and I need your help to decorate them again. I’ve come to you for help.
Like last year, all I need is for you to rate the pictures choosing your best three in order of your preference. They are ten of my favourite. It could help to ask which one of them you would want to have on your wall.
I appreciate you taking the time. Ah, who knows, maybe I’ll send some postcards your way too. Cheers.

They are all so beautiful!!! I would choose 6, 1 and 9 in that order. This makes me think that I need to do something about my walls too. When I first came to North America, I was shocked that all walls in apartments are so white. In my country, you would only see that in a psychiatric ward.

1, 8,10.
10 (and 6) especially to remind you of NEPA. 6 of traffic. Endless Lagos traffic. The noise. Chaos. Darkness. Conductors. Agberos. And all that the road symbolises (now forget that your poem!.)Both remind you of Or home. *wink wink*

I love it too. Interesting that my first contact with the object would be in faraway Oyinboland.

Thank you Zeeee and everyone who took their time to send me their preferences. Now the winners are 6, 1, 10, 9 and 8. Super. Now I am going to have a piece of bustling Lagos on my wall, and for balance, the peaceful pieces of seashells, and add to that the wisdom of the “Opon Ifa”. Nice stuff.
Like last year, I am going to send out postcards and wall prints of these images to anyone interested, as long as they do just one thing, donate to UNICEF that is working to help the victims of the horrible flooding that has affected over 15 million people in the country. More information can be found on their website. I’ve provided a link on the top right side of my blog. You may donate any amount. I’ll send you the pictures as soon as I see proof of such donations.
Thank you again.
