 Candid, from the hip, environmental portrait. Taken for Portrait of a Single Human but never submitted.

I generally don't post pictures of homeless people. I couldn't resist snapping a picture of this man while walking by.

12/3/16 - Thanks for the nice comments. So many questions flood my mind when viewing this image. Who? How? Why? ... A blink of an eye and there is no turning back.

Astonishing photo.Yes. all the why, who and how questions are made even more poignant here.
A formidable find and marvelously processed.

He seems to be a very distinguished gentleman. He may be homeless, but he has his pride, and he carries himself well.

I'm totally with you - this is an interesting person which you portrayed perfectly. Mark already mentioned the lovely light. Plus there are so many details which hold my eye like the bent collar and the gorgeous shadow of his hair f.e.
