 I spent last Sunday with Pedro roaming the streets of Toronto.

I was taking pictures of a sidewalk artist called 'CHALKMASTER' when this homeless man walked up looking mad. He wondered why I was giving so much attention to the chalkartist and not him, so I told him I'd take his picture too... The guy lightened up right away and hugged his dog for the picture.
