Homeless

[Fer!]

Wrinkles, memories, happiness, sadness. All in one word: The title says it all...

Made with Canon PS S500

 

[Meysha]

Awesome shot.
BTW how did you go about taking this pic?

 

[Ivana again]

Title sayes everything but he looks happy to me. I hope he got some tip for posing for picture

I could be way off base here but I think it would be a home-run in B&W...

Grand Slam, even.

The colour gives it justice, too. Skin tones are great here.
To be thinking that he once was a little boy... running around, maybe leading a happy life full of hope for an equally happy future? Who knows?

I, too, wonder how you went about taking his photo?
Did you just ask?

Great pic!

I also think it would look better in B&W.

The color is nicely done, but I agree that it might have even more impact in black and white. Technically and artistically very well done.

Meysha,

I'm glad you like it. Well, I spent about half an hour chatting with him. He told me several stories about how his life has been so far. Touching, I tell you. After taking his photograph I bought a nutritive and delicious lunch for him and enjoy, for a few minutes, the way he was enjoying his meal.

Ivana again,

Thanks for the kind comment. Yes, I believe he got more than an usual tip.

railman44/Picksure/ahelg/AlisonS,

Thanks for the suggestion. Here is the B&W version for you:

LaFoto,

Thanks for your kind words. I agree 100% with your thoughs. As I mentioned before I treated him in a friendly and sincere way. When I asked him for permission about the shot he gave me that incredible smile and respond with a huge and loud Si! (Yes!).

Bre,

Thank you.

It had recognized "Yes" by ' himself ' without your translation.... . Nevertheless, thank you very much to translate it.

We can keep doing this all day...

I also think it would look better in B&W.

My opinion also, and giving it a bit of contrast then would present this picture greatfully.

Grand Slam, even.

I agree...with a tighter crop and abit of oversharpening.

I like the B&W, but -- at the risk of showing my lack of photographic sophistication -- I prefer the color version. Guess I'm just a confirmed color junkie.
