Vive la France.
Paris. Nov 1st, 2005.
He was laying there for 4 days and nobody cared. Even I didn't care.
It is humane to walk past the bum. If he even was one. I never stopped to ask.
Is it in our nature to feel compassion only towards ourselves?

Oh my god, how horrible. So he died on the open street and even no policeman stopped by to see, if he is drunk or dead? That is just horrible.
It's strange how humans are sometimes. Me for example drove with my car one day in winter and besides the street lay a bum in the grass and I could hardly say if he was alive or frozen. I didn't stop to look. I even didn't call the police. I am strange, too. I am horrible, too... damn.

very good example of how blind people can be, how full of their own lives that they never take a second to notice that of anothers.
its sickening... at least not everyones like that. I know Im not.
lovely capture, good use of focus. love it :+fav: xxx

The greatest camera of all is the interworkings of the eyes with the mind and from the mind to the memory...

goverments concentrate on weath and power, why can't they deal with social decline. (hangs head in shame) worse part is todays society makes me want to have a drink, vicious circle comes to mind.

Very strong picture, especialy that leaf. i like.
