Still Homeless

Here is the same man that haunts this area of South Miami. Still homeless and all alone. How sad!

Still Alone

Her home is still the streets of Miami. Then, she was there. Now she is back at her home bench, here. Still all alone! How sad!

All Alone

Homelessness is a sad affair anywhere. Here in Miami, you can't help to take notice of these poor people, both physically and spiritually. I can't imagine how such a person must feel. The woman sitting at the yellow bench is somehow living in the streets of Miami. I spot her here and there, always cloaked in several coats of black clothing. Most of the time, she is occupying the bench that used to be the home of a man, who since has vanished into thin air. On the right is the Michaels store at the Dadeland Station close to Best Buy, Target, Sports Authority and Bed Bath and Beyond. It is gearing up for the fast coming holidays in the US... First Halloween, then Thanksgiving and Christmas. Do you know that this is also the peak season of suicide in the US?

Down and Out

You think you have problems? Be happy you are not the man you see on the bus bench on the right. This is his home. I see him everyday at this bench, just sitting and looking at the traffic. Sometimes, I see him holding his head in his hands and today, he is sleeping. There is a storm forecast to arrive here later this afternoon, where will he go?

Face of Loneliness

It takes about US $5 to pay for a meager lunch at a fast food place in Miami. This one always plays temporary refuge to occasional visitors who are obviously down and out. This man radiates loneliness and destitution as he finishes his solitary lunch and on the way out with a shoulder bag that seems to contain everything he possesses. It's a sad scene.
