Joshua Smith, a California farmer, took this photo during a day-trip to San Francisco. He was there during the Brides of March, when about 100 people don wedding dresses and parade through the streets. Smith made this image at the Tunnel Top bar in late afternoon. He was attracted to the light and rich colors, as well as the surreal scene. "I was drawn to this pair because they were such an odd couple. I like looking at people and their relationship with the planet."
