Photograph of a senior street performer with a goatee wearing tie-dyed clothes from neck to foot and a furry ushanka hat with a red star pinned to it. He has a guitar resting between his knees covered in stickers, the largest of which reads "Informed & Dangerous." He's smoking a thin cigar. A glass of dark beer sits on the ground next to him. He sits in front of a beautiful blue and yellow mural covered with art that matches his clothes. Also behind him is a man sitting cross-legged, wearing all black wearing sunglasses. He has a cup of Starbucks coffee on the ground in front of him with a baseball perched on top of the lid.

Photograph of a street corner in San Fransisco, shot on June 26th, 2026, in front of a cafe named La Rocca's on Taylor Street.
