Carol Carlisle's avatarSlam on the Brakes, Pull Over, Take the Picture

At a stop light I saw this woman washing her by pouring bottled water over it while she stood in street. She was careful to stand over the  grate to not make a mess. There was so much dignity and self assurances in her action it took me a second to realize that what I was witnessing was not normal in my world.

Blogging for the cause of homelessness is something I can see myself doing even with photography. We support a local soup kitchen I will have to figure out how to incorporate that into my post. Any Ideas?  Street photography takes on a whole new meaning when photographing the homeless!

Here is a second more intimate look telling a different story.  Which picture do you prefer?

  1. We don’t see as much homelessness here, but there is some. It is so sad that some people have (or choose) to live like that. We need to thank God everyday for our lives and what we have. Maybe we don’t really have that much, but it is so much more than what the homeless have isn’t it.

    1. The reasons for homelessness are numerous as the people that live on the street. Before a new shelter was built our church took turns with otter churches taking in homeless. There were a lot of families with children, parents had lost their homes. In California you need a lot of money just to rent a cheep apartment, plus references and first and last months rent. On minimum wage that is hard. I can start preachin’ about how Nevada gives homeless bus tickets to California and and and!
