I never met a homeless person until yesterday. I met with my brother and he is homeless. They are not mean people like I always thought. He wants to be off of the streets, but we don't help our homeless. Americans help the ones that don't try to help themeselves. He "wants" to help himself, but how?

My God, your work goes beyond words. The time and care you take to search out the people that "live" inside these wasted shells is the epitome of what all religions aspire to teach (and so few people care to practice.)

I am continually astounded by the humanity of your portraits and the depth of your compassion.

Thank you, my friend.

You have defenitily the most nice portraits from flickr... very humble...
though i have one small question, how do you approach these people? do you just ask them? or do you give them money?
I'm very interested in portraits of people, but it seems that I don't have the courage to ask...

Any idea how old this guy is? Despite the white hair he looks like he could be a bit younger than some of the others.
