 A graffiti tunnel on a bike path from an old railway tunnel. Tunnel is being shared pedestrians, bikers, graffiti artists and the homeless. And yes this homeless guy always has a laptop with him (to check DPC, I assume :) ),

Yes. He is really homeless. He was asleep there when we arrived. My friend who visits the tunnel more often than I says that he is often there and always has the laptop with him. There a is fast food restaurant nearby, where I assume they let him occasionally recharge the laptop, warm up, etc.

This is a very good image and perfect for the challenge. I like that you integrated different walks of life in the tunnel, perhaps homeless, walkers and workers. For me and sadly, everything is different today than past perceptions of people and life styles.
Congratulations

I like the image. Only my opinion but it would have a more desolate feeling to it if you waited for the walkers to leave or edit them out along with the 2 people on the right. Its interesting that the individual on the left appears homeless and yet it looks like he is using a laptop!
