Muni Diaries

Our “new” favorite city photographer collective, All City, interviewed photographer Patrick Power, who shot this photograph.

Patrick explains why San Francisco is such a great city for photographers.

“Compared to the relatively small midwest community I came from, there seems to be a photo opportunity around every corner here, whether it be the stunning vistas from the many hills, the architecture, the fog (which I’ve not spent a lot of time in so far), classic cars or the multi-cultural riches. A photographer’s paradise.”

Or a koi caught in the train tracks.

Don’t say I didn’t warn you! The very excellent folks at MissionMission have discovered that you can find intimacy in the most unexpected places, like a Muni shelter.

See how this all came about.

By the way, did you know that MissionMission’s own Ariel Dovas will be telling a Muni story this Friday at Muni Diaries Live? Come and see what he has to say about the fun you can have on Muni!

Last month we found artist Faernworks on Twitter asking for people to save her some Muni transfers. “It’s for art,” she explains. A retweet later, she’s received enough transfers to create some pretty cool art.

“One of the reasons I am working with the transfers is because of their day to day ‘ness of them- the everyday use and familiarity- that is quickly changing- i have yet to get one of those cards…” she explains on the Faernworks website.

Glad we can help a little!

Here’s the second part of the Faernworks Muni transfers project:
