1986 M6 with LEICA SUMMILUX 35MM F1.4 Sample Photo 348096 By pentaxpete

E, Love the way you got the dark surround and the subject in the circle of light!
Life can be tough on some probably the majority in this world we pass through.

Thanks -- I won FIRST AWARD in the last Print Competition at my Club for a 16x12" darkroom print on Ilford Multigrade Glossy for this photo.

Sad and poignant.
As for your comments, the least we can do is respect their dignity as that is all they may have left. I only hope that in some small way by photographing their plight we show more people that there is a problem.

Excellent lighting and tone values and of course the subject matter makes it a strong image!
