Neatorama reader Rosemary Travale spotted this creative graffiti (technically graffito, I think) near the corner of Iriquois Shore on Trafalgar road in Oakville, Ontario, Canada:

Some very creative person noticed the shadow the crosswalk box made resembled Batman’s head so they added in his face to complete it. Very neat street art to come across while walking home at night!

LinkThanks Rosemary!

    Nice... Now I'll look at all of the shadows on the sidewalk when I'll walk. I'll tell you if I find something :P

    ...
    except that at night there will be no shadows ... if it's made by sunlight.

    Should only happen for a couple of hours at most on a few nights per year.

    It's still vandalism.

    "except that at night there will be no shadows … if it’s made by sunlight."

    The crosswalk box is at a corner, underneath a streetlight. So the shadow is created by an artificial light source.
