No, not the year I was born. It was way before that. It’s the name of my photo animation project. I hope you enjoy.
Today we visited the Civic Centre in downtown SF for a field trip. The Civic Centre has an amazing history, having cost $6 million to build at the turn of the 20th century, only to be half destroyed in the big earthquake that hit the city in 1906. Think about how much $6 million back in 1900 is worth today? It is also the site where Harvey Milk, the city’s first opening gay elected official was assassinated by Dan White in 1978. Today it is still a government building whilst also being a popular place for wedding ceremonies.
I found this bridesmaid reflecting on the day.
Exuberant from their performance, I could feel the energy from the other side of the street, so I rocked up and asked them for a shot. They wanted to line up and give me the pose, you know the one but I convinced one of the mums that it was best for me to just mingle. I think this captures a more natural feel.
