In memory of... Kobe & GiGi Bryant

Yesterday, I saw that Danette encouraged people to go out and get some photos of street art. It was the extra push I needed to get this photo.

I had been wanting to get a photo of this memorial since September but wanted the lighting to be right and the timing (there are often large trucks blocking it.)

From this experience I learned that it is always good to check the digital image, to see if it came out okay, this did not. What you see is not always what you get when you're just looking through the lense.

I had HOPED that no words were cut off, but I accidentally cut off the names of Kobe's remaining family, his wife, Vanessa and other daughters.

This is from camera angle one. I also added the names of the 9 lost in the cloud above, to repeat the heart and imply their new address.

The addition of the cloud is perfect. Great capture

Great shot. Yeah, the names up there like that fit right in.

I’m glad my prompt encouraged you to take the shot. There is so much street art out there now. It isn’t always easy to capture,either.

@jerzyfotos Thank you, Jerzy. I appreciate your comment. Also, I think it's so great that you meet random strangers when you are out and about and make them laugh! Thanks for your photos of these interesting meet ups, like the couple with the Harley!
