RE: Visiting the Iconic Storms River Bridge at Tsitsikamma Petroport Station, South Africa

What a beautiful post, that I really enjoyed reading!

There are few places where we have not yet been, where we have yet to inscribe our names on anything and everything. On the bridge, various places are marked by someone who felt the need to leave their mark.

Isn't this totally fine? Us as a human collective have put our mark into nature in the form of the bridge. Nature has already been destroyed, a human mark has been made. Does an individuals name make a difference to this? I don't care, weather people write their names everywhere. I can't remember, if I ever did it in my life, all be it temporary with chalk or something like that, but I couldn't exclude the possibility I've done it before.
@saavedraa has made a post in this community a few days back, where he showed some art around a neighborhood. I would of course prefer if we had artists, that get the possibility to paint large works with deeper meaning in places that are currently just plain concrete or otherwise fairly unattractive to the eye. But as long as we don't have those, I'm glad there are some hobby graffiti artists, that leave larger markings, even if they don't have any meaning, or just many individuals that leave a short message with a water resistent pen.
