Scratch and Win

I went downtown Toronto to meet a friend and former colleague for lunch. During my commute I listened to a few people chat about winning a lottery and what if…. On my way back to the train station after lunch I saw this man scratching away at lottery tickets. I thought perhaps he needed to win a touch more than most of us.

 

I’ve never taken street photos before.. given I’ve only recently started taking photos at all. I did not have the courage to ask the man to show me his face even though I am positive it would have been a image of much more impact than this.
