Skeleltonz: This is a statue at a POS (Public Open Space) in the Financial District. It took me a while to find a name. ⠀ Photo by Juan Pablo, Age 12, summer student at @first_exposures #everydaybayarea #catchlighteveryday #firstexposures (at South of Market, San Francisco)

The sheer vibrancy of my beloved home, the Mission District, is displayed in murals, people, and even in these luchador masks. ⠀ Photo by Derek, Age 15, summer student at @first_exposures #everydaybayarea #catchlighteveryday #firstexposures (at Mission District, San Francisco)

Picture of guy under Buddha mural: I took this picture while exploring Chinatown with the program. It caught my eye because the guy is asking for help under a mural of a "god" which is supposed to help you. ⠀ Photo by Iliana, Age 16 (@oh.iliana), summer student at @first_exposures #everydaybayarea #catchlighteveryday #firstexposures (at Chinatown)

There's no place like... (finish sentence): I find it deep because different people have different answers. ⠀ Photo by Iliana, Age 16 (@oh.iliana), summer student at @first_exposures #everydaybayarea #catchlighteveryday #firstexposures (at San Francisco, California)

The Palace of Fine Arts: I didn't know the birds were right there. ⠀ Photo by Brianna, Age 16, summer student at @first_exposures #everydaybayarea #catchlighteveryday #firstexposures (at Palace of Fine Arts)
