  • I should explain: I see homeless people all the time in Los Angeles, so the picture has no 'novelty value' for me other than the fact that he is lying on the cart/chair. The man has no expression so there is no emotional value to the image. He is not facing the camera, so there is no 'surprise' value. As he is fairly clean, he does not present as much of a contrast to the clean modern background as most homeless people do. His possessions are not unusual and do not reveal him personally. QI, not FP. Downtowngal (talk) 17:31, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
