I thought Howard Hughes passed? I think he is checking his stock portfolio, or possibly rating your photos!

Amazing to see but not surprising. Well done - I have seen a few like this but never with a computer. Would this be close to Bonaventure or the Gray Hound bus station?

Bob, very unusual jaxtaposition of street life. Very strong and bizarre " portrait" of using advanced technology in an environement of that sort, Great eye to observe the scene and well composed.

one of the strongest statements i've seen on PN in a long time. you've got to submit it for plitzer, seriously. and I hope you dont mind if I send it to all my fellow IT professionals too :) this picture is an instant icon.
Ram Dayal , July 28, 2008; 06:03 A.M.
Great!
Bob, I have returned to PN after a very long time and I am thrilled to see you posting such fantastic work. This is the most eloquent portrait I have ever seen.
It is an epic image, man!

Personally I've always thought about good street photography being so appealing because it never tells you the whole story, sometimes even having more than one lecture, being multidimensional, if you will; that being said, your picture is all that. Congratulations on a wonderful job!

UNIQUE STREET IMAGE
Really excellent documentary street image Bob with impact and beautiful natural colors.
A great find well spotted and captured. Congrats.

Statement On Our Time
The caption appears to be satire. He certainly is not a businessman using a laptop for his business. The laptop appears to be in a better state than rest of his possessions. His posture and the body language indicate that it is not a set up photograph. The image keeps me guessing what this man is doing with the laptop.
This picture however is certainly a statement on our times - the technology of the day and its reach. It is what a transistor radio was in the hands of a farm laborer in seventies.

Very interesting image, I wonder what he is doing on the laptop is he connected to the net or playing a game or what? oh well it does make me very glad I refuse to allow my daughter to chat in chat rooms on the internet! Great capture! Thank you for the feed back on my Lady Bug photo.

Awesome shot - Really would like to know the story behind it as your shot tells the audience a Story...
1) A bum got a stolen laptop.
2) Bum found a laptop in trash.
3) Or a Darker story which was aired on TV here in Calgary on Homeless people, one they found and interviewed happened to be a CEO of a company but due to gambling & drugs ended up picking Can.....
Anyway Just Awesome 7/7
Sergio de los Reyes , September 03, 2008; 01:14 P.M.

I am really jealous of this image...!! :) I wish it were mine...!! Congratulation. This is really excellent. Regards. Sergio de los Reyes.

Gabriele Castelli

This caption is awesome.
I think that this guy found his laptop in trash. Looks like it is a very old model, as we can see parallel and serial port on the back of the laptop. It also seems that the cd-rom drive is missing (empty slot on the laptop side).
Great shot!
