We went to our Founders Park and this homeless guy was sleeping on one of the stone slabs there. I knew we have homeless in our town, but it doesn't strike you until you actually see it in person.

I know what you mean. Good capture, I like shooting in Founders park too, In fact i went there looking to shoot some skate boarders and there were any the afternoon i went.
Not a *bad* shot... it makes a strong comment on society. The fact that he's sleeping makes it a bit of a cop-out for me, though. I'd rather see someone awake, going through their daily routine in some way, personally.
