Was out buying some beers when I saw this guy walking on the street with a bunch of screws sticking out of his leg... went back to get my camera... Turns out his name is Rafael, and he was hit & run by a car February 2006. Was hospitalized for 8 months, and still has some way to go before recovering completely.

more pics of him in my flickr stream:

    Great angle. Love the composition. And I am happy you wrote a good description. A lot of people aren't for the emotion contest, so I really cant tell what the photo is about. Keep it up!
