I dont see anything to love in these contrasts. It's the sad truth of how our world is going beyond a madness getting bigger day after day.
No, nothing lovely in people sleeping in the streets, while others live in 10 billions houses

That`s my point. That`s what makes the contrast especially visible in cities around the world. These images don`t even scratch the surface. I will do many more such shoots to show the distinction between rich vs the poor and young and old. Also, I am not using the word "love" here to describe the images as nice or loving or pretty but instead to contrast them.

Oh, one more point I forgot. In my next series I will try illustrate (if I can) more clearly that the photos of young and healthy people living it up get way more hits than the images of old and homeless people. Horribly sad. But there are people out there who see these images and try to help. It is those people who I want to meet along my path and make part of my circle of friends.

"In software, ideas are expressed in code.
The implementation is the
idea. If an idea has not been
implemented, it is premature to call it an 'idea' -- it
is rather a notion, a daydream or perhaps a fancy. If one has such
a thought, the first order of business is not to send out proposals or
give speeches or navigate through process but rather to sit down and
write some code: build a prototype, share it with some like-minded
people, incorporate their feedback, expand the community and iterate.
If one does this and one's ideas are sound,
the process naturally follows; people naturally
gravitate to good ideas." Bryan
Cantrill
"Having
your voice listened to is a privilege, not a right, and it's a
privilege that's earned in proportion to the contribution level, not
volume level."

Burlison
