Description
In ancient times, when humans still wrote on clay tablets, I lived and worked in San Francisco. One day I saw something that begged to be captured on film (anyone remember film?) I asked my boss if he would take the picture. He loaned me a camera and told me to take the picture myself. So this is the image that got me started as a photographer. You'll notice that even the trees are portable.

So this got you started. And I do remember film (I did darkroom work back then, but not photography---and btw, I ruined more fine pictures than you can imagine. It's all in my book, to come out this May.) (I'm lying, there's no book.) I love this. It doesn't have the clarity you'd eventually acquire, but your street eye and journalistic eye is alive and jumping here. I love the old truck and the overall'd guy---something straight out of the old Depression photographs. In front of "Armenian," "Chinese Voice", Chinese calligraphic characters, and "The Whole World"---with a "Sold" sign right next to that: That's street shooting, dude. And the right side tapers into some old rustic fronts and windows...It really does feel like one of the old FSA Depression Era photos (Farm Security Administration---but now I realize you probably know all about that, so forget I even explained it). I can't believe this is your first shot. I'd show you mine, but I don't want to induce suicidal tendencies in you. Wonderful first foray. You had the eye all the way back then! Tara was right about these...
