Shall we talk people ?

place:

United States

notes:

Here we have many people loosing their homes because of bad loans , poor economic times and un employment. To name but a few. I spotted this homeless man last year and titeled him " The Face of America ". Little did I know that what I took was a prophecy of America. Now it is true and I have just been offered a large sum of money for this photo by a banking firm for a ad campaign for low interest loans. I have iinished the master copy for them and we should be signing papers Friday.
Enjoy the photo , and hugs to all.
Barry

PS. Thanks for being patient with me my friends. I have solved all of my site problems and I will be here more often.

Здесь у нас есть много людей теряют свои дома из-за плохих кредитов, плохие экономические времена и ООН занятости. С именем, но некоторые из них. Я обнаружил этот бездомных мужчин в прошлом году и titeled его "Лицо Америки". Мало ли я знаю, что я был пророчество Америки. Теперь это правда, и я только что предложили крупную сумму денег за это фото в банковской фирме на рекламную кампанию по низким процентным займам. Я iinished мастер копии для них, и мы должны подписать документы, в пятницу.
Наслаждайтесь фотографиями и обнимает всех.

and how much money will the model receive ? america is bankrupt, low interest loans will make it worse.
nevermind, it's a good portrait, very intensea nd very dramatic.

B.K. von Bernhard #10 Thu 30 Apr 2009 16:33

The person is not a model. But will recieve 1/2 of what I recieve. I have helped him get a job . A place to live and a small car. Yes America is Bankrupt , but so is the world. The bank who is going to purchase this has accepted NO money from the government and is a local bank that has many liquid assets. But the photo was placed here to make others aware that America is not perfect and will never be . Now Americans must learn to suffer without their boats , large cars , and their other toys . They must learn to survive and help one another . America outsourced many of it's jobs.
And along with that they also out sourced it's compassion for others. Thank you Fabio for your honest comment.
Warm regards.

Tragic portrait.

B.K. von Bernhard #15 Thu 30 Apr 2009 16:44

Thank you Andrei. thats what I wanted to capture for all to see. Maybe it will awaken the compassion in the world once again. I work with the homeless and find that I can have more fun with them than a party of the rich. They are very rich of heart.
Warm regards.

Thank you Mircea my friend. But now this poor man has a job, a place to live and a small car. He also will have 1/2 the money earned by this portrait being sold.
