HOMELESS


continuing the debate that we have already undertaken with Mary,


Yard Tuesdays: Better a Thief than a Photographer'Do not take photos of beggars, of homeless, of starved people. Do not take photos of prostitutes, of bums on the stairs of the churches, or of lonely men sitting on benches, waiting for the death like a train in the night.
Do not take photos of humiliated immigrants, of young victims of drugs, of drunk dreaming horrible dreams. 
Society took everything from them, don't take also their photo.
(...)
Do not take photos of the mentally ill, of the cripple, the hunchbacked, the paralytic. Leave alone who hobbles on his crutches. Do not photograph someone because his head is too big or too little or ill-shapen. Do not hit with your flash a defaced person, a beaten kid. Some of the worst photographic abuses are made in the name of the right to information. 
(...)
How would we judge a painter in bohemian clothes, seating with brush, palette and easel picturing a nice painting of a lifer in jail, or of a hanged, or a prostitute shi
Yard Tuesday:Street? Documentary? Photojournalism?"In conclusion, Street Photography as defined by the images produced by the greats during its peak (1950s – 1960s). As a form it is well defined and understood by art historians, academics, critics and curators has very little in common to documentary photography or environmental portraiture or humanist photography." Evangelo Costadimas

Photojournalism main Characteristics : Timeliness   Objectivity   Narrative
Street main Characteristics: Decisive moment   Candid   Narrative



Documentary is concerned about the sequence
Street about the instant

uhm, I think it's all a blah blah.

“Home is a notion that only nations of the homeless fully appreciate and only the uprooted comprehend.”

A Syrian In Istanbul by Canankk
There are over 400.000 Syrians only in Istanbul (1.5 million in Turkey), after the civil war has begun in their country.

Turkish people spend a lot of money for those cam
A space for dreams "Space for everything and everyone.

From 71 to 202 square meters, the residential lofts in A SPACE make family dreams come true,
but even space-conscious singles or couples will find something to suit them from the 24 individual floor plans.
The open-plan living, kitchen and dining area in the large lofts is complemented by one to three separate rooms.
Depending on the layout, there are dressing rooms, utility rooms or storage areas.
And, of course, a fantastically spacious bathroom with a separate guest WC comes as standard,
as does the sun terrace or balcony. "

For many people homelessness is just one paycheck away, and i think it's something that should be seen.
