Artist's Comments

This man, i have seen more than a few times, holding his hat out on the corner where andre usually sings.

He's fighting demons, and i say that metaphorically, but to him, they may be just as real as i was to him.

However, when i gave him my lunch, this smile crossed his lips, and i asked if i could shoot him.

He obliged. I would have given it to him either way.

Ive been sitting on this image for a while. Toned it, burned a little, left it as mostly as it.

Wow.... This was always my most favorited deviation, but i didnt really expect a DD!

Thanks so much to `rhapsouldize and ^Staged!

Imitating life, In mans eyes.. by =Obsidian-Fox. This image evokes hope in me. It's touching how some people can smile brightly even though life may not have dealt them the best cards in the deck. (Suggested by `rhapsouldize and Featured by `Staged)

Horribly intrusive watermarks are tacky. If you're concerned about people stealing your photos, don't post them on the internet.

Photography is the simultaneous recognition, in a fraction of a second, of the significance of an event. (HCB)
