On a rainy Tuesday morning in San Francisco's Mission District, the usually bustling streets were eerily quiet, with employees, like Carlos, carrying out duties under the drizzle. Foot traffic was notably reduced, and familiar faces stayed at home. Carlos, a worker focused on cleanliness, conveyed the sentiment of doing the best possible with limited resources. Similarly, local freelance photojournalist Gustavo Hernandez navigated the streets, representing a more personal narrative where conversations and connections shaped his experiences in the neighborhood.
I just plan to keep the area as clean as I can - that's all I have the tools to do, besides being good to the people who show respect.
Foot traffic thinned as workers and residents moved through the drizzle.
Rain kept most of the usual denizens away.
Gustavo Hernandez is a freelance photojournalist and videographer currently living in the Outer Mission.
