 An actual photo taken without any directing. It shows a man sleeping on a garbage bin. I first saw the guy when I was going home after shopping. I didn't have the camera on me so I went home and took it. When I got back the guy was awake and had two friends with him. I walked away and stood in the distance for half an hour waiting for the friends to leave and for him to go back to sleep. I took the photos and I left.
I couldn't ask the guy to pose for me as I was quite afraid of not getting him angry.
The title is from a film made by J. Huston in 1975.

Funny, I was thinking of making this very sort of entry with this very title. I do appreciate the irony.
