Find it very disturbing when people take pictures of homeless and beggars and then post them on the internet.
But maybe this gentleman was just taking a nap.

He got stuck in my chimney one year, looks like he's lost some weight - good for him because he was well on his way to a heart attack before. Can't recall the name though sorry.

Looks like he took the brandy with him

Re: Sleeping rough riverside
I agree.
Did you talk to him and ask him about his situation. If you just guess from his appearance, you may be wrong.
I know criminals who get arrested, have their photos posted.
Before posting pictures of people not involved in anything of a criminal nature, I believe you should ask their permission.

Very well. That's your idea. I differ from you. People can't all think alike.explorer wrote:I agree.

You did hear me say “never awake”, right? Or would you’ve had me rouse him from his stupor and ask if he didn’t mind having his photo taken? It’s called street photography.
The fact is in today’s world, with cameras in every hand (not to mention surveillance), once you go out in public you’re highly liable to getting your picture taken. There’s also a small but not insignificant chance that picture might wind up on the Web. And yet the Internet is vast, no? And turns over like a waterfall. With over a billion pictures posted each day*, what harm can come from one photo with no searchable name attached, posted in some small thread on a local, special interest website?
On the other hand some good might come of it. If someone recognized him perhaps they might come to his aid.

Re: Sleeping rough riverside
I was in Zambia about 15 years ago where it's illegal to sleep on the streets or public places. I was with this friend who was a right mess, he kept conking out all over the place so I bought a pair of cheap shades off a hawker. He attracted less police attention after that.Anchor Moy wrote: ↑Thu Mar 07, 2019 7:13 pm
