Excellent capture Richard. It really does help point out the disparity in today's society. Not that far from this spot there is probably some very expensive houses or apartment buildings.

Unfortunately, a common sight in many cities. My wife & I run a food pantry & many of the people we provide food for live in similarly difficult circumstances. There but for fortune...

Very, very sad. I still think that food, clothing, shelter, and water should be given to each of us bc those are things that we each need to live each day. Okay I better stop there. Excellent capture.

É MUITO TRISTE VER COMO UMA PESSOA PODE VIVER ASSIM,SEM TER UMA CASA PARA MORAR, ELAS PERDEM A DIGNIDADE E SUA PRIVACIDADE POR QUE ELAS ESTÃO EXPOSTA ,ELAS VIVEM PIOR QUE UM ANIMAL,AQUI NO BRASIL EXISTEM MUITAS PESSOAS QUE VIVEM ASSIM, DORMINDO,SOBRE JORNAIS E SE ALIMENTANDO DE LIXO,ISTO TOCA MEU CORAÇÃO POR QUE NÃO PODEMOS AJUDAR TODAS ESTAS PESSOAS,QUANDO ALGUMAS PESSOAS VEM A MINHA CASA PEDIR ALIMENTOS AJUDO NO QUE EU POSSO,PIOR É VER AS CRIANÇAS PASSANDO FOME O GOVERNO SÓ DÁ UMA CESTA DE ALIMENTAÇÃO E NÃO UMA CASA PARA ELES,ISTO É MUITO ,MUITO TRISTE.
