This is a shot that grows on you as you look at it. Nice capture, but seems over-processed - too much contrast? The hand is a little washed out. Nice shot.
GRR. I love this image but I'm not digging your title. Shame and Pain are very different. I feel the pain in the picture, but when I read your title, your image looses its meaning a bit. I also think I would have like this a little more without the cliche hand giving money in the shot. The begger alone with his money pot is sad, painful, and powerful. The hand reaching in sort of takes away from his pain because he's getting helped out! Nice image though. I like the noise and mild colors.
