All kinds of frames going on in this image. The Clemente Bridge in #Pittsburgh frames the Steel Building, the moon and downtown a few weeks ago, on the morning I went to capture the moon centered in the bridge. While I waited for that to happen, I captured a few scenes like this.

Researchers say wearing face masks dramatically reduces transmission rates of COVID-19, and can prevent a second wave of the pandemic.
We’ve all worked too hard and sacrificed too much to go backward. Let’s #MaskUpPA and stop the spread.

As millions of people across the country take to the streets and raise their voices in response to the killing of George Floyd and the ongoing problem of unequal justice, I’ve heard many ask how we can sustain momentum to bring about real change.
At Pittsburgh Covidsitters we want to be very clear: we stand with #georgefloyd, we stand with protesters, and we believe #blacklivesmatter.
Our hearts go out to the family of #georgefloyd and all the families who have lost loved ones to senseless violence.
