Homeless
While downtown this afternoon i met this homeless gentleman, Alexander Coleman.
We spoke for a little bit and he told me about a book he was working on while living under a bridge up the road the book is to be titled "Future America, Blacks Not Included". When done talking i asked if he would mind me taking a photo or two of him and he said that it was fine after i showed him some prints i had in my bag.
Today met this guy Anthony after i had finished with my morning pizza i talked with him for a little bit and took a picture before going on my way.
Later i seen Keith (speedy) again feeding birds and i went over to talk with him, He told me that "birds are the eyes of god, they see everything and never as anything of anyone" love this guys outlook to say the least.
I spend around 5 hours this morning roaming the streets of downtown Orlando again. Right after i parked my car i ran into this guy Keith or Speedy as hes known by everyone on the streets, He instantly busted into pose and said i could take his photo if i wanted i decided to go sit with him and chat for a bit while he waiting to catch a buss.
After he got on the bus i went back to walking up and down streets like i do most morning and i ran into another guy while leaving a 7 Eleven, His name was Carl I offered him a smoke and sat to talk with him. We talked for awhile about both of our travels and what it was like living on the streets and such i seen some beer in his cart and i offered to grab him two more if he would let me shoot him some he said i was more than welcome to photograph him ether way but of course he would not turn down beer. We ended up talking more than anything else.
I am really glad i am able to meet these people that do not seem to take a single thing for granted.
