Good concept, almost missed the subject; was that the point?

Not sure what's ironic. I see the guy on the steps, but the down-and-out regularly go to churches for help. The shot is a bit dark - otherwise just OK.

What's more, why is someone outside the closed doors of a church? Nice choice. Very ironic.

Hey, you got to pick the best stoop. The only thing that really bugs me is thatIfind it hard, at first, to even see the person on the stairs. But it would have been tough to make him/her bigger without losing the over all look of the building.
