16-APR-2007 Guenter Eh

living on the streets

Paris

I found him sitting on a side street near Notre Dame.
All his "essentials" are in the buggy beside him.
The streets were crowded with hundreds of people.
He didn`t noticed them.
He didn`t noticed me.
I took this shot, only one, and I felt bad.


other sizes: small medium large original auto

I know how you feel, I toyed once with taking a shot of the pidgeon lady at Hyde Park Sydney. Pidgeons all over her and a face that had been through too much. Compelling powerful images, but it is difficult making art out of their hardships. I did not have the balls to take the photo and I regret it. So well done! An excellent photo. BIG VOTE!

impressive image - would make the front cover of a magazine.

It's ok Guenter. This is the `real' world. They are everywhere. Count out blessings we are not like him. Vote

He probably still has the heart of a child (stroller)...
