Almost there

San Francisco, California - Part of Almost there series
© Joselito Briones


This is another picture I didn't notice until I started organizing my pictures yesterday. It's a house in San Francisco, I can't remember where exactly, and it was a part of a school project for when I took architectural photography classes in Berkeley extension in Martket St.

It's part of a collection that I call "Almost There", of photographs of entrance porches of houses in San Francisco. I wanted to invoke the feeling of relief and security one has upon having into view his entrance porch, after a day's work or after being away for some time. Maybe I didn't like this particular photo then because it's not very sharp, but now I look at it and think that sharpness shouldn't really be the deciding factor on whether to keep a photo or not. Or maybe I'm just reeling from the onslaught of hypersharp images that keep on cropping up everywhere these days. I particularly like the atmosphere on this one.
