  • A line of people wait to order coffee at a shop shaped like a coffee mug

    From the poem, I knew I wanted to incorporate people standing in line. So I went to Starbucks and took pictures. But I didn't get very good pictures. So I ended up going through photos I had already taken, and compiled them, so it would look like the people were standing in line. Most of them are people I know: family members, friends, and me. I'm the one behind the guy up front, to the right of him.

    I like the poster because it's different from what I normally do. I don't normally do pictures with a million people in them. And it was fun, because the people weren't random people, but from pictures I took years ago. So it's fun to look at it and remember where the pictures were taken.
