The human story has its sad chapters; the ones that star as the unfortunate characters; the ones we look away from when we pass them in the streets. This post is for them; a gentle reminder…
Absolutely great photos. I was in Jerusalem recently and got a picture of a homeless man. The look in his eyes spoke volumes, much like this man. Take a look and see what I mean. Here’s a link: http://wp.me/p2ROdc-1oz
Mimo, that first image is like a rock, or some organic piece of the earth. The first question that springs to mind: “is that a human?”. Wonderful shot, terrific processing.
The way you use black and white gives these photos a vivid, documentary feel. To generalize: some images are hard to absorb. Maybe we’re afraid of seeing ourselves.
