Seth – BW$P
Meet Seth.
On my way home, Seth was sitting on the sidewalk asking for change from anyone who walked by. Still 2-3 paces away from Seth, he half heartedly asked, “Spare any change?” I slowed down and offered him $1 for his portrait. Without changing his facial expression, he quickly agreed.
After taking Seth’s picture and giving him a dollar, I attempted to ask him a few questions, but he wasn’t very talkative. I found out that Seth has been in San Francisco for 5 years. I pushed further asking Seth where he was before San Francisco. He told me he was in L.A. for 2 years and prior to that in Eugene, Oregon. I was impressed and ask if he had plans to go elsewhere. Seth simply responded, “I’ve been thinking about going to San Deigo. I’m not liking the cold here anymore.”
I wished him luck with his future travels, he thanked me and I headed on my way.
