Times are really tuff here locally. Many businesses have closed and ways of life have been lost. Seems like you can't go anywhere without seeing a person in need asking for help. That is my inspiration for this photo. Even thou this shot is spoofing, it is not ment to offend. I ment to show how ALL walks of life, even photographers, have fallen on hard times.
