Such stark contrast between him and the crowd. I like how you captured their movement as they pass him by, really emphasizes the unresponsive crowd. But he still sits and plays, and it suits him just fine. Great shot.

thank u so much Yes that's exactly what I wanted to portray... I thought it kinda symbolises the culture of disconnection in the modern society today quite well

What a superior shot this is. I love the vantage point you chose. It focuses on him, yet shows the indifference of the passersby Another great one.

wow thank u my friend... I'm glad u think this is a better photograph too. Although this is more subtle and 'less popular' than the previous one I also like this better because i think this just speaks more on the indifference I try to portray

i find it utterly disgusting how there are homeless people in the USA. The gov has way to much money and can surely help more so.

i love this photograph for multiple reasons!

they would rather spend billions on an election and trillions on making deadly weapons than sparing a tiny fraction that would solve the whole problem. It's a sad world.

A beautiful portrait.

it remembers me a song, an Ali Farka Toure's song ( an african bluesman ): I left my country for another country...
