Photography: The Famous Kiss

_the_kiss

This photo was taken in late winter of 2011 when my sister was visiting from the East Coast. I was giving my ‘lil sis a tour around town (San Diego) and we made a stop by harbor drive where the Unconditional Surrender sculpture or also known as the “Famous Kiss” is perfectly placed across USS Midway (which is now a museum). I love vintage and since the famous photo where this sculpture was based at was taken in 1945 right after WWII, I decided to give a more vintage feel to it by tweaking the color. You can check the history of the famous photograph by Alfred Eisenstaedt HERE.

“ How you look at a situation is very important, for how you think about a problem may defeat you before you ever do anything about it. When you get discouraged or depressed, try changing your attitude from negative to positive and see how life can change for you. Remember, your attitude toward a situation can help you to change it — you create the very atmosphere for defeat or victory." – Franco Harris
