Homeless Man

So here's the deal...

I'm walking down the street and I see this homeless man pushing a shopping cart wearing as many layers as he can possible fit on himself, as the wind tunnels down Fenway. Regardless of the wipping wind in my face the sun is shining and the sky is blue. I know that the angle I am at would make an amazing picture to capture this man pushing his possessions down the mangled sidewalk...if only I had my camera!

How many times have I wanted to take a picture and not had my camera on me? It's sad because every time I see what could be an excellent picture my crappy 10 megapixel camera is not in my bag. So...from now on I am going to carry my camera with me, maybe not every second, but more so than I am now. So when I see this homeless man again, I will be ready.

  4. Go into Brigham Circle, about 6 minutes away from Fenway, Homeless guys (and girls) abound. And its so photo worthy...and so sad at the same time. It's heart wrenching. Really.

    And this photojournalism thing that your doing is wonderful.
