A giant red heart in Beverly Hills

Laura and I stopped at a giant red heart sculpture in Beverly Hills, California, in February 2024. The heart was glossy and bright red, like a huge balloon, and the sun was flaring over the top of it as we stood in front and took this. It was part of Follow Your Heart, an installation by Mr. Brainwash. It was mid afternoon, around 62, under a clear sky, with a light breeze around 3 miles an hour.

I held the camera out for a selfie of the two of us, with that heart filling the space behind us and a little of the street at the edges. Later that afternoon we were in Griffith Park.
