Living on the streets

[Msteelio91]

While walking around Columbus I came across this homeless man who saw my camera and asked very kindly for a photograph. He loved it and posed enthusiastically for several shots in his spot. It was great to see someone with so little who was brighter and more friendly than nearly all of the businessmen with high-paying jobs walking around the area. He thanked me and didn't ask for a dime so I gave him some money for lunch, which he hugged me for in return haha.

That, IMO, is REAL street photography!
