San Francisco Reflected in City Puddles by Angela May Chen
Photos by Angela May Chen
By focusing on the ground rather than the horizon, photographer Angela May Chen captures street photography in San Francisco reflected in city puddles. For a city that's already known for it's beautiful skyline, Chen captures it's lush architecture from reflecting it in upside down view points, and unique angles, pretty much in ways it's never been done before. Through each watery reflection, Chen has been able to transform everything from the city's rich cityscapes, bridges, sidewalks to even trolleys and palm trees, into a whole new perspective. The creative combination of various textures and elements causes the viewer to take a deep look, as each photograph begs for a second glance.
So the next time you're walking through your town, take a look at the reflections in the puddles, it's guaranteed to add amusement to any rainy day. Check out some of our favorite photos below, and be sure to follow Chen on her instagram page where you'll find some of her ad work, more San Francisco street perspectives, and even some delicious looking food photography. Her eye for the city will definitely want to make you pack your bags and go.

[Video] KOOL A.D. "Jaleel White"
Can’t say that I’m a smoker that can actually jam to this song for the lyrical content while I “light one up in the ay-yair,” but the beat is so dope, though. Das Racist's old crew member and San Francisco native KOOL A.D. brings us this smooth track where he smokes a blunt for the whole duration of the video while the song plays in the background. The track comes from his recent mixtape, 19, which was named after a bus line in the Bay Area where he grew up. Full of smoke and dope rhymes, smoker or not, check out KOOL A.D.’s visuals for “Jaleel White” below and follow him for the latest.
