Donny (not his real name) was busking on this street corner with his harmonica. He said social security just wasn't cutting it. I asked if I could hang around and snap pictures. Donny said he would rather I didn't. Then I made a contribution to his retirement fund and he was all for taking pictures. Pretty shortly, his shirt came off so I could see the tattoo on his back.
You never know what will happen in street photography.
Where to start?
Since Helen passed away I've become more involved with the homeless community volunteering for the local soup kitchen.
I don't speak about our clients as a rule but occasionally someone hit's a nerve.
Will was one of our clients. Doncaster born and bred. Ex-Forces and homeless in Chester. We see this often, which is appalling in itself but he was so decent, clear and circumspect he was a joy to serve.
I showed this pic to him, and he said it reminded him of Afghanistan. It's Buttertubs and not entirely sure Buttertubs has been compared to Afghanistan before, or if that's a welcome comparison.
Will took his own life yesterday. No more fighting mate.

On board the Pharaoh Suzuki RG 500 at the Deer's Leap on his way to winning the 1980 Ulster Grand Prix 500 cc race. Scan of a photograph taken with my Topcon RM300 way back in August 1980.
Donny would lose his life in an accident during practice for the 1999 North West 200. Sadly, Donny's younger brother Neil was also killed during practice for the Oliver's Mount races in 1986. A true up and coming talent lost far too early.
