Urban Struggle

I spotted this man in the center of the road, politely trying to get people in their cars to lend him a hand. I parked my car at a nearby gas station and dashed across the street with my camera in hand to take his picture. Of course, I left him with a nice donation.

 

This image depicts the contrast between the "haves" and the "have-nots"... of contrasting fortunes... contrasting lots in life, some driving shiny new cars, and others asking for a helping hand.

 

It was very touching to meet some people having a hard time in life... and perhaps document their struggles in a photograph. Most did not want to have their image taken... for the world to see their hardships and suffering.

 

It was a very touching experience... makes you wonder what can be done about the plight of the homeless.
