I was just your average tourist in NYC taking in the sights when I walked past this homeless person. I expected to see the odd homeless here and there, but I was quite took back when I saw this man casually napping at one of New York's most famous attractions, the Brooklyn Bridge.
I stood there for a minute or so as countless other tourists, locals, joggers and cyclists went past without even seeming to notice. Maybe he felt safe here, infront of the eyes of hundreds walking past. All the while he just layed there and rest.
This man and the city were oblivious to one another. I thought it was pretty sad.
