Florida is an area with a lot of diversity in its landscape and architecture. Although there is a very unique "feel" to the Florida landscape, there is one thing that is not different across the country: the indifference of people. When ever I walk through downtown (here in Gainesville or my native city of Orlando) I tend to notice a beggar on the street with a sign or a woman crying. Despite overt emotions, the beggar is the only one who openly displays what he feels - what he needs. But even so, people still ignore. Maybe it isn't indifference, but something must be said about the mass apathy that's plaguing this country, not just Florida. That's what I want my pictures to illustrate. The pictures I am showing are of homeless, but what I want to do is have ordinary people with their emotions displayed on a sign like that of the homeless, but still show people walking by displaying their indifference.
