    What a perfectly timed photograph! Sums so much of the idea if I don’t see it then it doesn’t exist mentality:) what time was this taken by the way?

      Thanks! Yeah, it really does. Like two different worlds in a way.

      It was only late afternoon. Just as it was going dark, although it was already lights out for the fella in the foreground!

      Yeah, I can’t disagree with that. I enjoy a drink. Too many drinks sometimes. But this is definitely too many drinks and then some.

    The prone gentleman with the exceptionally shiny shoes looks like he’s been lamped by the nearest seated guy. Possibly after the former made an opprobrious remark about the others mother.

      Haha, if I didn’t know any better, that would be a more obvious explanation.

      His shoes caught my eye as well. Such a contrast to his unconscious state. All that effort he took to look clean and sharp as he headed out to work, only to end the day passed out drunk in a dirty alleyway…
