Isn't it amazing how one's perspective is influenced by one's situation.
For instance, when I first looked at the photo I saw dispair and felt lucky
that I was not in that situation.  Upon closer inspection I noticed that the
woman is smiling.  Even in her situation she still has something to smile
about.  Makes me feel bad for ever thinking that my situation was bleak.  If
a good photo is one that makes you think, then this is a great photo, Shel.

Subject: PAW PESO - Breakfast in Bed


Some people have lives of comfort and luxury, and can be entertained by
breakfast in a warm, comfortable bed: juice, toast, coffee, the morning
paper, all delivered and presented by someone who cares for them.  Others
don't have quite the same luxuries, but still can enjoy a simpler, and
perhaps not as comfortable, breakfast in bed.

The scan on this one sucks.  For some reason I could not get the details in
the highlights that I could get when I made the darkroom print.

CAVEAT:  If you don't like my photos of the homeless or the portrayal of
those less fortunate than yourself, then don't look at this photo.
