Another bit of exploration in the homeless project – Robert and I went out shooting last night – we wandered for a few hours.
And the only thing I worked out was that I felt like an intruder in someone else’s home. It’s easy to ignore the homeless – it’s much harder to try to acknowledge them.
I worked with the homeless a few years ago while in England….outreach work. I always went to my comfy home at the end of the day… and partly discontinued working for the charity, because I couldn’t afford to continue ..ironic eh?
Thanks guys – I’m really struggling with this subject – trying to get across a concept without being too “in your face” with it. More wandering and musing is called for I think.

There is one other viewpoint that is scary and that is those that are violently opposed to the homeless, in Barcelona and in other places attacks have been horrific.

Never a truer word spoken Sara…..
Cool selective colouring btw.
Very nicely and truly put Sara. This image encourages relfection and consideration…nice one.
Sara, a great narrative. Your photo, understated and manificent is so in keeping with your message. Great work.

Excellent work. Great use of colours. Well done!
Is it a persons legs at the left? if it wasn’t s/c i don’t think i would have noticed. Nice decision to do so.
Yep – another set of legs :) That’s why I chose selective colour for this shot – then the name emerged afterwards.
