Help me find the best title for this photo. I cannot make my mind on one!
Lens: HD Pentax-D FA* 70-200mm F2.8 ED DC AW Camera: Pentax K-1 Photo Location: Ottawa, Canada ISO: 4000 Shutter Speed: 1/250s Aperture: F2.8 
Posted By: Weevil, 06-30-2017, 11:36 AM

I took this photo when visiting Ottawa for business reasons. On the evening, I took a walk in the ByWard Market area, and started doing street photography after the sun was gone. I was interested in this beggar person and tool a couple shots of him. I never noticed the couple and baby passing by. When I got back at the hotel I saw this one!
I think it is special and bring lot of emotions.

How about, "Kindred Spirits"?

I am very new to photography, but how did you get an ISO 4000 photo to turn out with so little grain?

Thanks,
Josh

Just exported RAW file from Lr6, with moderate sharpness and noise reduction (NR Luminance at 50%). The K-1 has something to do with that also.

"Hello."

Your image says a lot on it's own. Not many words needed.

Can I hope to get such good results from my K-S2?

I was going to submit a name but I can’t do any better than this. Well done!
As for the photo, this is a wonderful shot! As mentioned before it says so much without saying one word!

An excellent shot that tells a story on many levels
As a Canadian I find it very difficult to find the words to describe the emotions the picture evokes in me.
Emotions of sadness that, even in our nation's capital, amidst our country's 150th anniversary celebration we still have a very long way to go address the plight of those less fortunate, to maybe a small sense of priceless joy brought into the life of the homeless person brought on by the innocent curious look of the child.

No.

On the other hand, it didn't cost you as much, right?

My idea about title: "Do not rush."

Photo is great.

Thank you all for the kind words...
Indeed it's sad... but sadness is in the eyes of the viewer isn't?

I think I would entitle it "Mixed Emotions" finally...
