!["Super Human (AKA Mecca)"](/sites/default/files/styles/510x315/public/04-15-15/1-jeffrey.jpg.webp?h=adbb760b&itok=dNexlDh3 "Jeffrey, a student at the Inspired Teaching School in northeast Washington, D.C., took this photo and called it “Super Human (AKA Mecca)" as part of his class's "Everyday D.C." project, where they took photos of their communities to show people what their "everyday" is like. Here's his caption: "This photo was taken because Mecca and I wanted something fun. At the same time we wanted it to look like something futuristic. In this workshop I learned to hold the camera still when taking photos. Whenever I don't, the photos are always blurry." Image by Jeffrey. Washington, D.C., 2014.")
