Hammer Home 
You will be curious why the man sleeping there? Why there? So much misery in the world nowadays.
I believe that there is genuine mental illness with this individual.
This shot actually precedes the one at the the following link by a few seconds:

I like the social realism in this shot. The reflections in the window almost makes the world look soft, curvy and dreamlike, while the person sleeping on the street proves that it’s not.
I had to carefully position myself so that I wouldn’t reflect in the shot. I wanted that mirrored element in place uninterrupted.
I only wish that the road behind me; reflected in the window, wasn’t there so that the people on the park benches would have appeared closer. I think the social statement would have had even more impact if they appeared in the reflection like an audience to this despair of humanity.
What a lonely world we live in!
Even with a global population of 7 billion and growing.
Fabulous (and incredibly sad) photo Allan!
The effects of poverty and severe depression combined.

Such a twilight zone feel to this great shot.
