Beach Bums

[wncMTNfoot]

Just popped in town for a little vacation and right off that morning come across a skater bum passed out after what seemed to be a hard party night. I've noticed there are allot more this year then I've seen in the past.
And of course I had to sneak a little peak...

5a.m. the next morning. This dude right next to the street with his pants down. His body twitching and jerking from whatever he was doped up on. But it also made his feet and toes wriggle around allot.

This guy went by the name, "Sand Man." Original huh??
I actually befriended him and we chatted for quite a while one day on the beach. Although he needed a little cleaning up, I liked the shape of the soles of his feet. He was an interesting and cool guy, but I pretty much think he is a new release from prison. He was there for several days and he seemed hungry so I give him 5 bucks. After that day I didn't see him anymore.

I liked the tat on the back of his head. It says "Unity."
And he believes that he will see Armageddon within his lifetime.
Didn't ask about the other tattoos.
He does have a cartoon Road Runner tattoo on his leg which I though was cute for such a butch man.

Never saw this guy barefoot but never the less he was very appealing.
He did seem to have a job with one of the local vendors and would
clean up to work.

Thanks for the great photos and information about your subjects. Did "Sandman" know you were photographing him and his feet? If so, what was his reaction to that?

[JohnRice]

Another spectacular Job. As per usual.

What delights me most with your photography is what a great Humanist you are. Your camera adores the human form. Entirely because you adore the human form. And through them both, you bring out what is beautiful and uniquely individual about the person being photographed.

I try to have the same take, but with a paint brush. If I can get near to expressing the concentration of how much beautiful humanity there is in a man, I will die happy. In an average of six feet of bone, flesh and skin there is more wonder and delight than to be found in an entire star system. That's what I think.

That's where you are.

Very cool on ya.

No. I photographed him asleep. I had planned the next day to chat with him again to see if he may be laid back to my interest in his feet but it seems he had moved on. Or... got in trouble somewhere and arrested.

That dude (the one who with his pants down, on drugs) has really nice soles.
