A surprisingly beautiful gesture the city of Nashville makes to its

homeless population is a little park across from the main library in

its downtown district. There in the Church Street Park the homeless

hang-out, nap, receive meals from charitable groups, visit the library

and talk, joke and even play ball with the ever present police. I

don’t think I have ever seen the homeless treated so respectfully in

any other city. Comments and critique appreciated.

Hi Wayne

Not much of a motive, but you handled it in a most interesting and artistic way. The blue person together with the multicolored gray and the black and the white line ads up to a picture I would like to hang on my wall.

Tommy,

Thanks.  You nailed it.  This homeless guy was going nowhere in particular - no particular motive. But his posture and shadow spoke of dignity to me.
