This photo is one from a series of portraits I've been shooting this summer of crack addicts at night. All the portraits are being shot on one corner in my town: Ottawa. I've been there about 15 nights so far and almost all the addicts now know me. I bring them back prints. Most of the people on the corner support the project.

Dark image--the building lines show a vanishing point. Visually it continues on and it makes me wonder what is on the next corner? Perhaps the same thing...
