Sometimes you’re walking around San Francisco, and you happen to be in the right place at the right time. That happened to me outside UCSF the other day.
I’ve walked past this colorful Benioff Children’s Hospital sign so many times. But this time around, there was a big crew of guys meticulously cleaning every inch of it.
I love the way the colors on the sign ended up matching the strip of fluorescent yellow on the worker’s reflective vest, as well as the yellow color of the pillar in the background. It’s a pop of color in an otherwise fairly drab scene, filled with greys (including the grey sky of an overcast day).
I also love the dedication captured here. Scrubbing the nooks and crannies of a sign can’t be the most exciting thing to do. Yet here are six guys, making sure it looks clean and perfect.
