not funny?? I thought it was hillarious...i mean we were on the island at 9 and Senor Frogs closes at like 4 so he'd been there a while...
This was taken from the lakeshore drive chicago... I am pretty new to photography.
Please feel free to CC this snap.
This reminds me of a few weeks ago when I went downtown and a homeless man bumped in front of me near the pier to wash his hair with this random faucet which I think is meant to clean fish with. I felt bad for the guy, and even though I had the camera in my hand at the time, I refrained from snapping a pic. I guess I should have since it was quite unusual, sort of like ipodtouchers
Ah, yes, those "homeless guys", those "bums". Let's take a photo of them. Why not, they don't move so fast. Some of them are asleep...
Remember the words of Bill Hick (hell, he was right about everything else...). "Anybody could be a bum. All it takes is the right girl, the right bar, and the right friends, man."
It's not that we are trying to make fun of the homeless. I personally think we should see how other people live their lives, not so pristine and lucky as we are.

Bro, why don't you spend a little time talking to them, and maybe offer him/them some money in exchange for them allowing you to take a few pictures. I've done this in the past, and was able to do some interesting character studies, but always with respect for my subject. Bottom line: ask for their cooperation, deal with them like people, and respect their dignity instead of exploiting their situation. You might be surprised how real they become, and that they can still be holding onto a fair amount of personal pride, despite looking disheveled. Treat your fellow human kindly, and you will reap the rewards in turn.
Thanks for all the comments on the previous one.
Still a good few to go...

Technically taken too late in the evening, but it isn't too bad.
