Guy on bridge

Image of guy on bridge, I’ve seen him there a lot but took a while to ask him could I take his portrait.
Two top notch images, surprised no one has made a comment here, you’ve caught the sadness of having to sit and beg so well, whether or not it is right or wrong to photograph is another debate still this was well spotted and your connection to this man is just perfect, would love to see more of these images, do you have any more hidden away ?
Thanks for the comment Red Fox, I’ve read all the debate on this type of photography on some of the other images but in fairness on both occasions I did stop, get down to eye level and spoke to both guys and as I was leaving asked could I take their portait so these aren’t taken from a distance.

Well taken, Paul not an easy thing to do, I think if you have permission to photograph
then it is quite acceptable and hopefully will bring home to a few people just how many
are living on the streets, bad enough in more clement weather but the depths of winter
it is a thousand times worse.Thanks Jenny
It really is a cold time for these guys, over 40% increase in homeless in recent months.
