  Covered Store Front

  I liked how this picture captured a lot of current events. The signs showing support for the Black Lives Matter movement, the pride flag and the boarded up building encompasses a lot of what is happening right now.

  Empty Street, SF

  I saw the empty street and wanted to photograph it because it felt odd to see such a quiet street at night in a city. Due to the virus the night activities have gone down, and I liked how this picture illustrated that.

  Boardwalk Lights

  I like how the image showed how empty and calm the boardwalk was on a Friday night because of the virus. That with the woman wearing the mask (right side of the picture) showed how the virus has changed Friday night activities.

  Ferry Station

  I loved the way the lights from the ferry station looked at night. It also showed how empty the station was given that it was a Friday night in SF.

  Marketplace, SF

  The Maketplace lights were on and it still looked lively, and yet the doors were locked up and there were distancing and COVID-19 caution signs on the doors. I liked the contrast in that.

  Empty Toll Gate

  Me and my family drove to San Francisco to take night pictures and I got this picture of the bay bridge toll gate. The time of night can be seen in the upper right corner of the picture. I wanted to capture how empty the bridge was, despite it being a Friday night going into SF.

  Water Fountains

  I chose to take this picture because even though the fountains were covered to prevent the spread of COVID-19, it was reminiscent of the segregated water fountains pre 1960's. I thought it was an interesting visual since there have been studies to show that black neighborhoods are being disproportionately affected by COVID-19.

  Caution Slide

  I saw the slide while on a walk in the morning. My local playground had been shut down and taped up to prevent children playing. I wanted to photograph it to show how the pandemic had changed even basic activities like taking children to a playground.

  Middle School Shut Down

  This photo show the shutdown of the schools, which for me as a student impacted me directly. It was also a striking image to me because it showed how much things had changed that the school was closed off and empty on a school day when school would usually be in session.
