Great Graffiti

Location: Mission between 6th and 7th Sts.

Today is your day to be famous

I was in Yerba Buena Gardens between the hours of 8 and 9 midweek about 2 months ago. I was in desperate search for light-saturated images of architectural elements when this man approached me and asked me to take his picture. I had some extra film (I roll that analog way) so I figured why not. He sat himself down in quite possibly the worst light ever and so I took this shot with a super long shutter speed and very low depth of field.

When I snapped the shot he exclaimed, "Now that's a rush! I've always dreamed of being a part of art like this but never thought it would make me feel so good."

Location: Yerba Buena Gardens (4th St. and Mission St.)

Pork/SHEEDY caution

I didn't have my camera the first time I saw this. But, I was able to find the graffitied sign, not in the open as previously, but fenced in like a pig in a pen.

Location: Mission and New Montgomery

traffic meter trees

I was going to go buy some sage to smudge my new apartment in the Mission and parked my car at this traffic meter. Someone decided to decorate these traffic meters on 23rd and Valencia with green plastic ties. I think they make the meters look tree-like. There is a relative abundance of foilage on this block, so maybe that was the idea.

Sea Unicorn Boogaloo

So there is this great place to eat called Boogaloo. Inside this fine eatery are many attractive and interesting wait-persons. They serve attractive and interesting breakfasts to you (I like the eggs gravlox). My waitress today had this fine Narwhal on here apron. It is todays sight. If you go check it out she will probably still have it on. Also eat a biscuit and vegetarian gravy. Yum.
