A sad photo of a scene too often viewed in large cities. Belgrade has been enjoying unseasonably warm weather, but soon this unfortunate man will have to seek a warmer place, perhaps in one of Belgrade's homeless shelters.Soon it will be Thanksgiving in the US; be thankful for what you have...

Very sad photo indeed but a reminder to reflect on what we're thankful for.
Yes, too frequently seen, and everywhere, it seems.
This is a strong shot.
Geat shot, very moving. Thanks for reminding us how lucky we are by those cold nights to have a roof and something warm to eat...
You have my vote, for this week reflection contest.
Great shot on so many levels. First the shop behind is up for sale (another result of the economic crisis), then the homeless man and to top it off the irony with the Loto/Bingo stickers.
photo touchante qui reflete une dure realite
bravo pour cette photo
A very poignant photo. I guess things are hard all over the world. I see so much homelessness in the city near where i live, and i think I should try to do something for them. Then I get to my nice warm dry house and forget. SHAME ON ME.
You are right, too often most everywhere. Nowadays even smaller cities have their share of homeless men and women as well. There is so much we should be thankful for.
touching photo
thanks for sharing it
greetings from Uruguay
This is very sad indeed, also a double reflection, about life and the reflection on the window shop.
Hugs and a nice weekend,

Sure hope there's room at a shelter.
As always, your candid shots speak 1000 stories, any one of which will snag some heartstring.
Thought provoking for sure. It's so sad to see and it's becoming more common.
Yes, it makes me sad to see so much misery!
And that's becoming too common everywhere! Alas!

Have a nice weekend****
That truly is sad. I see them every morning on the way to work. Most are making their way south to warmer climates.
December is the month in which our church takes in the homeless - especially important in the cold, snowy month of December!
Indeed we have much for which to be thankful!
Nice vew for a sad life !
as i remember, in belgrade it is not so frequently to see these things... in each italian big city, unfortunately, there are hundreds... during tito time, i think, you hadn't these problems...

I wonder what his story is? Thought provoking.
Thank you for a sobering post today. We need to be thankful for what we have and to offer a hand-up to those in need in these tough economic times.
Thanks for posting...
Such a sad sight to reflect upon. We have a "bus-stop" man in PV, who's been on the street for at least 5 years...with all the wealth around here, it's unforgivable. Of course, I see so many in Torrance, Long Beach...
Well done to post this, "Bibi".
une belle photo, mais dure et triste pour cette personne
