Absolutely a great guy. Livin' on the streets of San Francisco

with a wonderful outlook, in a situation that would break many. J.

What a great image. That smile -- it is over his whole face.

joy, happiness, satisfaction, peace..... His eyes vividly describe these. A beautiful picture of a very interesting subject.

Before I clicked on the image, I new it was SF. It's a good image, a little flat and about 2/3stop under exposed.

 

 

The transients in SF are happy because the city spends a lot of money keeping them around and making sure the liberals don't get up in arms about human rights. Plus, if they were mentally stable, they wouldn't be in the situation they are in. I passed the same bums everyday on the way to the Academy (when I went for one semester, big mistake). They begin to recognize you, and go straight for the real suckers... the tourists.

Very simple, very nice, very much what street photography is all about. Well done !
