Nice photograph. The situation is up for consideration as to being a good one or not.

Great representation of the city street and well framed. I worked down town for 3 years in Philadelphia and we had a young lady with her dog in the same place every day for the 3 years. I would never have taken her photo but came to understand that to her it was like a job. I don't know but I suspect she never looked for anything else.

Real people, that is what life is composed of. But Hollywood has indeed turned some heads!

Nice shot but not the right one for me today, or any other day come to think of it. I have to agree with Quixdraw

He might like living in misery, but what makes him think the dog would?

Photographers like to shoot things for different reasons QD. Some like shooting bugs, landscapes, dragon flies, animal life, etc. Man is a social animal, he needs social interaction. I am a people person, I like to capture lifes moments. I also like to interact with the people I capture. I try very hard to be very respectful of the people I shoot. This image portrays something real, whehter or not people want to admit it exist or not it does. I usually engage in a conversation with them and yes, sometimes I give them a couple of bucks, sometimes a burger. In this case I got him some food for his dog.
Hope I have been able to give you a better understanding.

I know what you mean Bob. Thanks for the compliment, it is appreciated. To bad I could not talk the wife into Arizona instead of Florida.

I shoot whatever interests me. I don't shoot people who are reduced to begging, or even those who choose that as a profession. I prefer a brighter vision of life. Can't imagine being in that situation, but if I was and you took my photo, I'd see what orifice your camera would fit.

Thank you for taking the time to view and comment Country Boy, it is appreciated. I suspect that you are correct, it is their job. Don't know about Philly but in New Orleans a lot of these people have dogs to keep from getting arrested. If arrested the NOPD would have to call the SPCA to pick up the dog and the police did not have that time to wait on them.
