after taking this pic. the best he could do is babble about how he didn't like to think about or photograph "the poors" but moreover he appreciated this homeless man's sense of color.
seriously. fuck off sartorialist
Only well to do people go
Only well to do people go about thinking there's something dignified or honorable about having a hard life. Look at the amount of homeless people that have substance abuse issues or mental disorders and you'll see there's nothing romantic about it. Scott Schuman to me was being way more honest by saying that, than trying to pretty up the tough lives of homeless people like so many photographers try to do.
ummm
I read that post. I didn't find it offensive. It's even titled, "Not Giving Up." Some street photographers photograph homeless people all the time, all he's saying is that isn't his usual muse, but he found this person compelling in some way.
