Instead, I pursue an approach that uncovers candid, unposed moments that reveal ephemeral alignments appearing and disappearing around us every second of every day. I noticed this moment shaping up a couple of blocks away when I heard the foreman of a construction crew calling up to his men. The instant I realized there was a possibility the crew might line up, I sprinted to a spot in the street, directly under the foreman, where I laid down with my head against the edge of the sidewalk, looking straight up. Having such a high vantage point, this was easy for the crew to see happening. Also, looking down at their foreman, it was certainly impossible not to notice a guy lying flat in the street directly below them. This time I didn’t mind that I would be seen taking the photograph. The moment was quick, and the resulting image had such great energy that I instantly came to love it as one of my favorite DTLA RISING images; the last shot at the end of a great day that embodied a feeling of hope and unity in the city that didn’t always feel in harmony.
