Storyline of the movie:
„In 2009, a genetically re-engineered measles virus, originally created as a cure for cancer, turns into a lethal strain which kills 94% of those it infects, mutates 5% into predatory, nocturnal and vampiric mutants called "Dark seekers" who are extremely vulnerable to sunlight and other sources of UV, with only the remaining 1% immune. Three years after the outbreak, US Army virologist Lieutenant Colonel Robert Neville (Will Smith) lives an isolated life in the ruins of New York City, which is now deserted, unsure if any other uninfected humans are left in the world.“ (source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Am_Legend_(film)#Plot)
The sequence of the picture:
Robert Neville went every day to this spot next to the destroyed Brooklyn Bridge. He sits at a desk and listen to a radio, which plays his radio message: „My name is Robert Neville. I am a survivor living in New York City. I am broadcasting on all AM frequencies. I will be at the South Street Seaport everyday at midday, when the sun is highest in the sky. If you are out there'if anyone is out there'I can provide food, I can provide shelter, I can provide security. If there's anybody out there'anybody'please, you are not alone.“
On the pictures you see Robert Neville (really really small) sitting at the desk at the end of the runway (with the letters HUGHES). On the other picture you see a close-up view of this sequence.
