'A Race Against Time' to Capture a Rapidly Changing San Francisco
After 18 years in the city, a photographer tries to preserve its disappearing faces and places.
Troy Holden didn't carry around a camera when he first moved to San Francisco in 1996. Now, he wishes he had. Since then, his adopted city has changed quite a bit.
After he got a simple point-and-shoot in 2009, Holden started documenting what he came across on his walks up and down the city's hilly landscape. He eventually developed a signature style that offers a simple yet dramatic look into lives all over the city.
