The Rogues

Johanne Brunet

The Rogues

It could be the name of a video game, or that of a recording studio. It could even be a folk music group from Vancouver, or the name of a celtic rock group from Scotland. It could also represent some characters from a novel… but most likely, it could be a name that they have given themselves, the squatters who live in the disused buildings around the Old Port of Montreal.

    P.S. Last night I watched a taping of the Montreal Comedy Festival – gala something-or-other?!

  • Johanne Brunet replied

    Must have been a show from a previous edition of the Just For Laughs Festival one of the highlights of the summer season in Montreal.

    Hi Johanne! I like this – can I form a group and have this as my album cover?
    Nice texture on the wall!

  • Johanne Brunet replied

    Sure, you can contact my agent anytime! LOL! Thank you for your kind comment, Paul! :-)

    Great shot, simple graffiti but it is so enhanced overall by the texturized exposed brick! It would make an awesome cover for a musical group!

  • Johanne Brunet replied

    Thank you Joanne! There are groups called like that, so perhaps I should contact their agents and sell them the image! One never knows… ;-)

    Really strong composition!! Love the way the bare plaster forms a diagonal.
    Am I seeing the start of a series? Smog and now The Rogues?

  • Johanne Brunet replied

    LOL! I would love to say that I have enough stuff for a series, but unfortunately, it was only a short walk and the other shots that I have are nice but not as interesting, IMO. Well, perhaps one or two more…

    Thank you for your nice comment! :-)

    Excellent work sister! I really like the flat texture of the cement mixed with the texture of the bricks. Great impact for my eyes !

  • Johanne Brunet replied

    Well, your eyes would have made the happy dance over there, that’s for sure! LOL! We’ll have to go back together some time. Thanks for the compliment! :-)

    Love the composition of the cracked render which has fallen off exposing wonderfully textured bricks. Excellent shot. Including the graffiti

  • Johanne Brunet replied

    Thank you Celia! I was really thrilled when I saw that wall with the graffiti, and my husband was calling me away to look at the skills of a skateboarder. He just had to wait! ;-)

    Very cool find and composition Jo!! Love your thoughts about the name too.

    Thank you Ursula! In fact, I google The Rogues and Montreal just to see what I could find, and it could really be any of those things, namely.
