Without any help...

Thanks for (larger) viewing...

Excellent work! 6

Nice shot, Ruud, though I have the feeling that the person could fall backwards. As a viewer I consider there is a large car to put it in balance, but in this picture this part isn't visible, therefore I got the impression that it is off balance. Do you agree? Groeten.

A nice street shot with masterful framing, angle of view and excellent bw conversion. I like it a lot. Bravo.

Hi, Ruud ... your perception of the everyday scenes is admirable. Regards

Amazing Shot! http://aumoyard.info/nic/1/1x1.jpghttp://aumoyard.info/nic/2/1x1.jpghttp://aumoyard.info/nic/3/1x1.jpg

Excellent capture! I like the title too. Makes us think, that we become (or we try to become) so independent, that sometimes it is so sad : we are human and live among humans, so how come we end up like this, without any help? It makes me so much happier when I see somebody pushing a weelchair - athere's human touch to it, isn't it? Great picture, Master! Best regards, Tamara

I agree with Tamara.  I like the double-meaning of the title; in a way, it must feel great to have a degree of independence, but it would certainly be a warmer pic of the helper were in the photo.  I don't think it's off-balance because of the crop.  It focuses in on an issue.  

many thanks for your visits, comments and compliments!

Marco, Tamara and Donna: it's a crop indeed and a large car..

With best regards / hartelijke groeten,

Ruud.

I am sorry I missed this one earlier Ruud. I had a friend who was (or still is) in the same situation, and had a van changed to work like this. His wife was a good friend also, and she had quite a time caring for him. His van was a very integral part of having a normal 'type of life'. So important for him to get our for a drive, and then there are Dr's appt's etc. A  very good shot of what life is like for 'many' not as fortunate as many of us.

many thanks for your visit, comment and compliment!

With best regards,

Ruud.
