The Homeless Of D.C.

[just x joey]

C&C Please

this lady rotates with a few other people, and is posted across the streeet from the white house. They have been protesting since the 80's i beleive.

This guy was very happy to pose for a picture, i like how 'Bed, Bath, and beyond' stands out on his cart because its like thats the closest he'll be to a bed and a bath, i dunno the words to say what im tryn to say, but u get the point. He was a very nice guy.

This guy didn't care if i took his picture or not. I asked him and he just said "whatever." then i gave him a bottle of water and a poptart and he was very happy. (i took this b4 i gave him the food and drink)

Nice work Joey. Best images I've seen from you on here. The vignetting adds a nice touch.

Really nice work! I agree, the best I've seen from you...could this be your niche, perhaps?
