The Take Away

The homeless situation in San Francisco seems remarkably bad. Areas of town wreak of urine, and the sidewalks are littered with people sleeping, some in their own filth. I guess freedom means everyone can do as they desire, but so many of these people were obviously suffering from emotional or mental problems.

This picture captures a homeless man, sitting in a waterless sculptural fountain, oddly blending with the massive structure.  The juxtaposition of images and meaning struck me.
