This statue is right outside the Gap Inc building- I only noticed it as I was trying to cut through their parking structure to get to the YMCA faster. I love it for a couple of reasons. First, in the current day and age of iphone photos (and the SF tech bubble) I love that this statue has an someone trying to take a photo with a real camera. Second, I think that it perfectly captures that same motion we have all done when trying to take a photo while ensuring that someone doesn't step in. And third, the statue is in a normally extremely busy area of SF where most people keep their heads down and hustle to work. I like that it reminds us all to slow down just a little bit.
