A bit on the lower side of the holiday season. I ruthlessly searched out a homeless fellow for a shot (although I did compensate with some $ and a little Mc Donald's breakfast love). I have my reasons, but I was quite pleased with the turn out. The gentleman was quite kosher with idea, but I still felt a bit guilty (like when I took photos of sleeping Mexicans in Chiapas and children in Peru, although they demanded Soles ($) afterwards). He and I lived in upstate NY at the same time and both ended up in Utah..."two roads diverged in a yellow wood" (thanks Miss Miller (8th grade English), I will never forget that one).
Be grateful for your heater (and everything you gots) today, it's cold.

I have wanted to buy some homeless guys some food from McDonalds for a shoot, for a really long time, Don't know why I haven't. I also want to spend the night in a shelter one night, So I can write about it. This time of year always makes me feel extra sad for those that don't have homes, or families. Thank you for this post!
great post. I think in my everyday life I get caught up in things that aren't important. This post made me realize how blessed and lovely my everyday life really is. Thanks.
I love that you bought him food, you are such a good soul.
