This guy was cool. We talked for a few I took about 6 or 7 shots then gave him $20.00usd for his time and he was out! This was a great experience. I learned allot about myself.

congratulations on this, this is amazing. don't listen to the critics, i've learned a lot through some of the great "homeless street photography" on here, and it has changed my perspective quite a bit.
sorry to do this but DNMC, I think taking a picture of a homeless person does not qualify this for a street shot. good photo for a different challenge maybe but not street.
interesting character. like the processing, eventhough the taco bell cup seems to have been taken to an abnormal hue. the cars grab a bit more attention than they should.
Wow this shot really stands out. The editing is great. Great subject as well.
Not sure I really like the angle of this though and I think I'd prefer to see the cars cropped out.
Well...I like it...I'm going to venture a guess and take it that this gentleman is 'homeless'. I deal with the 'domicile challenged' people on an almost daily basis - this guy looks like quite a character. I'm wondering? did you get him to pose for the shot or was it spur-of-the-moment? If posed - the Taco Bell cup (imho) would have been best out of the shot. If not posed - then, I guess a tighter crop might (?) have been better - but probably not. I think you've probably edited it the best possible. Great job!
