In downtown St. Louis, as in other cities, you can find homeless who are suffering while in the same picture find a stark contrast of unintentional photo bombs of how the other half lives, so to speak: playing, eating, having fun. These kinds of pictures help explain, in a visual sense, the inequalities in Downtown St. Louis and in our nation as a whole.
