Phone cameras really come in handy when finding 'reality splashes' on the street.
Here's a little story about a tidy bed found on the streets of Madrid:
Walking around a 'high class' neighbourhood, full of busy people carrying lots of famous fashion designers bags, found this tidy bed on the street. Its owner wasn't around, but he or she made sure to keep it perfectly well made until his arrival 'home'.

wendygital, that's both sort of funny and really touching -- thanks for this.

It was a pleasure to write it, and that was exactly the way I felt while I was doing it, a little sad and a little funny.

I'm glad you like it.

wendygital, I like this because it's observational. You saw it - you snapped it - and that's how we can understand how people live in other ways. Phone cameras open up a whole new world of possibilities as we have them with us all the time! Good stuff.

wendygital, I like it too. The homeless person is fitting in with his well-healed neighbourhood. Good stuff.
