Per senso etico e per mio pudore personale non fotografo mai persone in difficoltà perchè mi sembrerebbe di violare la loro privacy in un momento di forte debolezza e, forse, di disperazione. In questo caso però, complice il fatto, per me fondamentale, che la persona ritratta fosse completamente irriconoscibile e che i colori dell'insieme attirassero, comunque, la mia attenzione mi sono deciso a concedermi una deroga. Anche per una forma di doverosa denuncia sociale: qui siamo, infatti, nella 8th Ave, famosissima arteria che costeggia il lato ovest di “Central Park”, a pochi passi dal “Columbus Circle”, zona ricchissima e per ricchi, ricca purtroppo anche, scusate il gioco di parole, di queste palesi... “contraddizioni”.

Thank you very much Orat,
for the beautiful comment and for appreciating this image of mine.
... The white of the sheets conveys dignity...
I totally agree with you and I add that these "last of the world" have much more dignity than many of those "characters" that the world should... govern it. :-(
Hello and good evening,
Paolo

A photo that combines a social denunciation with the remarkable artistic sense of the same.
Congratulations Paolo. :-)

A sad image that I would never want to see and that brings to mind the contradictions of the society in which we live.
The image, however, is very beautiful and the caption justifies its content.

I perfectly understand your reluctance to photograph disadvantaged subjects. I also understand your message of social denunciation that does not involve the individual human being, but the contradictions of society as a whole.
The photo, then, is characterized by a splendid red and rigorous composition
Congratulations Paolo. You have been able to reconcile social denunciation and beautiful photos with elegance and discretion
Greetings
Sergio
