Tomorrow Fade Away

This photo really evokes quite a bit of emotion.
The dirt, grime and peeling paint shows a building forgotten and uncared for by it’s owners, which is home to a man forgotten by society.
Fantastic work Antoine.

a nice change for you and well seen – the softness of color adds a great deal to this image – nice work

There is so much inequality in this world. But left to individuals? There isn’t a lot a person can do. But it doesn’t mean it isn’t happening and you have brought it to attention, which is the best way to make any one sit up and listen. Great documentary Antoine, and a lovely pictorial element to it as well!

Pictures can really say 1000 words. Beautifully done.

An amazing shot. Very powerful.

Excellent, revealing, lighting superb to highlight this bleak uncompromising, story.

Well spotted and taken Antoine.

Beautifully captured!

superb street scene, the photo is first class and the dirt road and tumbledown background give the photo a sense of place. otherwise the fellow could be in London although there are places not so different there too

Incredibly powerful image; very moving and thought provoking Ant; excellent work on this!

This is stunning! Such a powerful shot!

Such an amazing, powerful shot. Very emotive. Well done!

Amazing! Such a power capture with excellent processing and texture.

This is an awesome shot! Great work! Keep on.

This image broke me.

I looked into his eyes and felt what it would be like to be him behind that glare and I felt the acusation, and guilt at my part in his plight.

I feel there is so much said in his eyes that no one has commented on, and that is the state of this mans soul, this is an actual person, and we are all discussing this and that about homelessness and picture quality etc, but look at him and the state of his spirit and being.
There is such a desolation and an anger that I also feel he would rip me apart rather than spend the time of day with me, and I can understand the reasons why. Still we consume him and discuss him for what he has become and not what he is…a human being. He sits amongst our images as we visually devour all things in this place, and him in the process, we are all guilty of putting him there and its all our responsiblity to do something about it.
So come on all lets not all just sit here in our comfort and record these things and feel like we are doing our part it. Raising awarness is an amazing thing, but sometimes it comes down just to helping out with the people in your own neighbourhood, getting involved.

Sorry this just really upset me. Antoine keep up the great work.

almost frightening image as it does open one’s eyes!

I’m stunned,just like a knife in the heart,so moving and the shot is perfect with the most beautiful processing,realy impressed I am.

It so sad….how inspiring and but emotional this photo is…. very powerful…

THank u..

Heartbreaking and beautiful at the same time…...... masterpiece!

Zo triest…..maar een hele mooie foto

Awsome… enough said.

very touching photo….color, lightening and image are perfect. great work

Very dramatic and moving i love it. great shot.

i feel it

What a emotionally fulfilling and informative photograph. This would not look out of place on a National Geographic cover. Sensitive and skilled work, Antoine.

Very powerful and moving image, including the title. Subject, comp, lighting, all perfect. Love this.

Brilliant

this is excellent work….theres no question when it come to mr.DAGOBET works!

One heck of a brilliant and powerful image….stunning work Antoine

Antoine Son it’s been said over and over … POWERFUL … I do not just see the poverty though. There is something in his body language that says ” I accept who and what I am ” ... ” This is, What it is, for today ! “

Awesome!

Wonderfully emotive image combined with great comp & texture :)

this is a great image, well done.
Rich.

bloody hell

it don’t get better than this

great powerful shot!!

A deeply moving and powerful image.

outstanding !

That poor man, what must his life be like?!

Beautiful – favourited it – it is powerful imagery

Beautifully composed …

I am speechless at your talent!

Man, this is intense. Incredibly well done.

Amazing work my friend!

wonderful again

just wanted to say that this piece takes the cake it is awesome

you’ve caught his humanity. this moment of his life will never come again. the thoughts he was thinking then will never be thought the same way in the same sequence as they were in this moment. in a heartbeat, in the click of your lens, you caught it. and because you caught i feel for him. i feel closer to this man i don’t know and probably wouldn’t have noticed if walking past him on the street, than i do colleagues i work with. for that i thank you.

great image, powerful story

This is truly a awesome shot. It speaks volumes.

this made me cry i just couldn’t help myself as your image speaks volumes and is just so powerful, absolutely amazing capture, well done!!!!!

I agree, cannot even express how much emotion this image had on me, your work continues to amaze me, you have a natural gift Ant

Good shot and treatment

A great capture of an very emotive subject.
Nice work, Antoine.

This is fantastic Antoine!!!

great work!!

Fabulous.

Wel done, Antoine. Great to see you taking more than just the beautiful house with the beautiful girl and the beautiful resorts.

Powerful. beautiful and stunning. Truly great work Antoine

somehow, you have taken a desolate seen and added so much beauty and emotion to this piece!

Excellent shot! Love the tone of the image and the meaning of it!

That’s another great work Antoine.
I love the way you play with the light in all your shots.

Amazing capture and so touching. Most people never really look at the homeless or perhaps actually avoid looking at them or acknowledging their existence.

Great eye Antoine, what a powerful image this is! Thanks for sharing and caring.

Excellent work! Beautifully done! But oh so sad.

Wow Antoine, incredible work. The angle really makes this great, and the subtle colours and feel. Instantly emotive, simple, strong. Well done.

very strong image leaves a message!

i like your work…great…!!!!

very sad.
but very powerful image =]

I love this image. It saddens me horribly but thats how it is in todays world.

Geeeezzzz… I love it, i love it, i love it… So touchy…

a i agree with aqualina
i believe if we take we should also give
you take this photo
what did you give
it saddens me that most ignore this plight and take and walk on and not give
itsa great image but some things should be sacred did you post this to get comment on ya work or to show the dire need of some that wander among us

Very powerful, despite the lack of power this man has over his situation….I know someone who loves film and took the sweetest shot of a family of four or five people riding all together on one lil moped style bike in Indo….really sweet… this photo made me think of it….anyways nice work….sad to say….Thank you for the poem, it honors this man.

This is a very beautiful and moving image Antoine. The sence of hopelessness is so thought provoking. The colours are just superb, and i love the pov. Well done.

I work in a homeless kids’ refuge – and the feeling you have captured here is superb ( both technically and emotionally!) :)

powerfull stuff

superb capture

Incredible shot…. You’ve an eye for the emotional side of society, Antoine…. —Love and Light~OLGA

Reality,what a superb shot.

this is one of the most original and best portraits ive ever seen i love it

im there no worries gr8t idea and cheers to that thank you

i enjoy your work so much…..very well captured my friend…

powerful shot great work Antoine

The man just merges with the background. Great shot.

this is a very strong image congratulations on portraying the poverty in certain countries that ordinary people don’t get to see

you’ve conveyed the sadness of this man so well…emotive and heartfelt work.

Powerful image.

splendid
;o)

Great image.

Wow – very emotive.

Well done Ant for getting this on the feature page

brilliant in every way … technically and emotionally!

Very powerful and emotive image. Well captured.

Dont think I will ever forget this image, moved me in many ways!!!

Antoine, this is such a moving and stirring(the heart) photo!.. I hope and pray it brings awareness of any kind.. get people talking because this is a real problem that isn’t going to go away. Congrats on the featured page..I did as well which is how I found you.

one amazing photograph

That is such a powerful shot!

beautiful composition

Outstanding…

an incredible shot, evocative and exceptionally emotional

Incredible shot!!! fantastic composition and colour

WOW! Thats close to about all I can say.. There is soo much feeling in this photo! Love the colors and you’re point of view!

Humans may have forgotten, but God has not.

evocative image. well done.

You are truly blessed Ant! Not only is this image full of emotion and sadness but the sheer quality of the work itself is incredible. It has a wonderful abstract quality to it. Such mood and atmosphere.

In Christ,

Ruthie

Not a suprise to me Antoine that this capture made home page! Congratulations my dear friend! x

Such an emotive shot Antoine. You have captured the sadness and loneliness of this man perfectly. Noone should be homeless – everyone needs somewhere to belong.

Good work my friend

Well deserved homepage feature. Congrats!

Deserving of the Home Page! ‘Nuff said!

Fantastic shot !!!

A favorite for sure! Clearly a work of art! Congrats!

This is a beautiful and evocative portrait. This is what the camera is for! Awaken the masses, make them look…inspire to create action. Bravo, great work!

what can I say but, wow

This is a very powerful piece. Thank you for reminding us to count our blessings, especially now.
May he find a portion of whatever peace that’s left in this world. Congratulations on making the home page.
Sharon

Such a beautifully sad shot. Great work, what a powerful image.

such a powerful image, excellent work!

Wonderful verse and powerul image.

This is just a fabulously powerful piece of street photography mate! I am in awe of it. It speaks volumes of the sadness of this situation. Very emotive and thought provoking work. Great stuff!

all of the above what else is there to say, respect is earnt and you have mine

very moving and meaningful.

I can’t go by this one…....the emotion it brings. That one person’s life of helplessness at the moment you took this photo can create such an overwhelming response in so many people! You are an awesome photographer and thank you for bringing this moment to the Bubblers here.

Man, that is one scary shot!!

A great print by the way!! Beautiful comp and lighting.

A remarkable image.

I love documentary work….This piece is awesome. I believe that documentary work is where the phrase “one picture is worth one thousand words” was coined….wonderful piece

This has always been my all time favorite! Excellent work!

Brilliant !

The dignity in this picture is awesome.

This image encapsulates the suffering and inhumanity we humans inflict on our own kind in a most stark and quietly terrifying way. Stark because abject poverty can be found in every corner of the world, yet quietly terrifying because most of us pretend it does not exist, and would walk by this scene without a second thought.
A most thought provoking image, and, I agree, one of your best works to date.

Wow, so much depth in this.

adapting to the colours of his environment, he almost blends into the background, sitting there forgotten by society.

great work.

Powerful image….............stimulates thoughts of the less fortunate, inspiring image.

Incredible image….........so emotional to look at this poor, poor man…...............the extreme lonliness and desperation he must feel is overwhelming…................

nicely done…..very powerful indeed!

hmm great shot ;) bad sad

Dramatic image,wonderful result

A very moody and evocative imagae Antoine, very thought provoking!

Very powerful image which speaks volumes. Well done!!

speaks more than 1000 words… (and an outstanding photo)

It has all been said – but I feel that the wording matches the image perfectly – makes my woes seem insignificant by comparison.

I agree with Davis Barnes – this could be a National Geographic cover, it’s easily that good. Such a powerful and emotive photograph should really not go unnoticed. Photographically excellent in every way, he totally suits the environment and shot at a low angle you get see his eyes. It is this that really gripped me Antoinne as you really feel his helplessness. I hope you submit this or somebody nominates this photograph in a large photographic competition, not in a frivolous way but so that this man’s plight may be elevated into people’s and particularly politicians conciousness and for others like him. It is actually hard to look at this man’s eyes, a very powerful and thought provoking image. First class Ant.

Wow,very powerful. Destitution shown by the composition of this is well done.

very powerful!!!

This is a bit of a departure from your usual work. I like it very much. It is a emotional piece. Very well done.

excellent shot! full of texture and emotion

Nice work, love the muted colours…..

This photograph is so evocative.
I think that it stirs so much emotion because of the beautiful painterly textures that you have presented. At first glance it is beautiful, but then the sadness of his situation becomes apparent. Captivating photograph.

Great capture

powerful image ant, i think i’m having an ant attack! so good to come back to your work.
this is something i love about photography, it can be used as a powerful tool to take people into very intimate situations and stimulate them emotionally i think moreso than art, as it captures what is right there infront of you.
xx

fantastic and wonderful treatment of the image

Things like this will only change when people with talent like yours can take the images to the world, this is an image that speaks!

Sad, and so telling of modern society that has so much and yet let the poor live like this. I see it in NYC and every city in the USA. Even families with small children. We must take better care of our poor and homeless.

Classic – photojournalist shot … great work

wow there is nothing also to say cause every one had already said it. lol.
but i will say this very powerful image.

Excellent image… poor fella though :(

A story, loss and a deep understanding by yourself … what an image you have made.

Very nice :)

AWESOME

very emotive shot, and do you ever wonder if a person such as he, would except life in a better way? I often wonder if meekness and courage and strength doesnt become part of thier character for being in this situation and if they ever thought of leaving it behind. I think of hard times in my life and wonder about what i ahve learned from them, and i know i probably would trade in the hard time, but not what i ahve learned and gained on the inside.

Fantastic image of a critical problem. Your artwork is extraordinary and it is so important for artists with your talent to help people become aware of the global crisis of homelessness. I took several photographs of the homeless that is part of a series and am glad to meet a kindred spirit. Very profound and powerful work!!!

he looks so lonely….i usually throw on this tough girl bravado but this pic made me cry…(how ridiculous) i hate knowing there are ppl out there that could be feeling so lonely…(i feel so bleeding heart, whatever else ppl call em….) this piece is very emotional, you did a wonderful job

It great when your art and touch some ones heart…This is a strong and powerful story with in this picture..Great job Antione ..:)

This is one of the all time greats on the bubble…....... It is just mind-blowing in it’s message, visual beauty, and is close to distressing to look at….... Beat that for impact…...........

I have probably allready commented on this one, but there arem too many comments for me to check… Just wanted to say this image is absolutely amazing :)

Really powerful like it alot..

from one sad story in my life to this story…it sadden me that homeless have to go through this..u have presented this in fabulous way….and your work here speaks…nice

Wow.. amazing

excellent composition and theme captured. Joe

Wow, great work! It is not only wonderful photograph (perfect framing, light, colors…!), but above all, touching document…

Great composition and wonderful image.

amazing shot

powerful and moving,,,,

This has got to be the most amazing, realistic street life photography EVER!! So hard to swallow yet absolute emotive!!!

excellent!

one incredible work…my friend

amazing artwork…

The writing really empowers the capture as it all seems to be the order of society today,being
that a lot of people are so very greedy to take so much from others without returning anything
back to that person & or the society they & we live in.When they are finished taking & taking,
their cold personalities turn a blind eye to people & events as the one we see here.
Thankyou for sharing & reminding people through this capture & your powerfull words,
FANTASTIC WORK

WOW!

You are a master of light. You subdue it to fine purpose.

wow, amasing picture. the decay is the promonant feature and really brings out the theme i think. good title!

so very beautiful

This is so powerful and says so much..Mp

a terrific study of such an interesting subject

whoops – hadn’t realised I’d commented already. But of course, this image is twice as good as many others!! LOL

this picture speakes volumes, and is so true, thats why the lord says that we are to help those in need, although my friend we can not help the whole world but if we help just one we create blessings for ourselves with the lord and his favor is upon our lives. have a blessed day. Brendalee

Hi Antoine. This is a very powerful image. It says so much without saying anything. What a story! This is really what photography is all about. Fantabulous!!!

Powerful image…. he is so ‘worn’ that he blends in with his degenerated surroundings.

this is one really powerful image!! I really feel empathy for this homeless man, but at the same time find this image beautiful… not because he is homeless, that i find sad and want to help him, but the image itself is just lovely…
I hope that makes sense!
xx Sam

Really intense shot, so sad!

Very powerful..the plight of the homeless spans throughout the world…very sad!!!!!

Such a thought provoking image…I love the emotion here, fantastic…

Superb!!

WOW….great shot…talk about getting down and dirty!

Fantastic in every way, sad (image ) but true.

Powerful shot…makes me sad. Its so …”real”
You have captured everything perfectly, its an emotional piece.

Waouh ! You really catched something here !

I think it’s all been said already!

such a great shot. very powerful

the pathos is overwhelming in this beautiful shot , very moving

Very powerful Antoine

wow, though i never see the bottom of this page,

now ….cool image, sad and happy…mixed emotions about it…

tomorrows do fade away for some, hope not for us…

”......carry on a way ward son…” from song by Kansas i think….....

congratulation on your sale!!!!!
Well done!!

Regards,
Christian Zammit

correct me if I’m wrong but he looks like a sadhu (i.e. Holy man) so wouldn’t the title have been more appropriate as ‘yesterday fades away”? Not trying to be a smart arse but his disheveled look is one WILLFULLY brought on by himself….

having said that spiel – magnificent shot and light – one of the fines shots I’ve seen for many moons!

very good capture.

Excellent capture !!, extraordinary title !!!

brilliant capture,,, well done

This is fantastic!! amazing capture. Did you ask his permission? or did you take a chance?

Captures the place in a touching way!

I’m speechless …well done. A favorite.

You are really good, just been checking out some of your stuff. Fab…

I find your port folio superb!! Great great work!

This photo is intriguing…It looks like he is writing in the dirt…makes me think of the story of Christ and the woman caught in adultery…where He kneels and writes in the sand…I dunno – maybe I’m stretching it, but it’s what I thought of as soon as I saw it.
Great photo!

I could say a lot about this photo as it speaks so much about many things. Fantastic work.

Steve ;-)

Brilliant image, so powerful!

STILL TO THIS DAY …........ this image is one of the best on RB …...............

I hope you have had this framed and put up on a wall somewhere in your home…...it is so worthy…...........so powerful and so worthy..........

Amazing. What struck me the most, is the composition. How you chose to let the man blend in with the background. Genious.
