I like the title. Also, I like not being able to see all of the guy. Makes it feel like he has at least some of his privacy left. Good exposure.

Poverty at its truest. Love the way you capture this man without intruding on his privacy - even if all he can call privacy is a tree trunk on a public street. Intimate, without being intrusive. I like the respect I feel in this distance and angle.

Nice lighting. I think it is a powerful statement that the man is almost "invisible".

Good photo. I might have gotten a different angle and maybe zoomed or cropped, but not bad.

Excellent example of "Poverty". My only gripe is that the man is covered by the tree. I assume you were trying to be unobtrusive, but could you have stepped a few steps further to the left so you got all of him?

God doesn´t live in the church, He is in the heaven. Anyway, the photo is good, I give you 8 points.

its poverty sure , and fits the bill. I look ast this image and see a fantastic opportunity for a really great image, rather than a grab shot.All the elements are there if you hade been brave enough to walk up to him and talk a while; Igaurantee he would have been a willing subject it might have cost you a few bucks but everyonewould have won. I am jealous that you had the opportunity,. I have rated it higher because of the circumstances.

I don't get the title. Is the guy on church property? As far as the photograph itself, I think it's very good and fits the challenge well.
