Somebody without a mobile telephone and an pay telephone that still works. A little miracle here Andy.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if she's calling her agent.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great expression on her face! I rarely see pay phones anymore.
ReplyDeleteHappy moment, and a bit "retro style" over your image..... the fact that she is using a telephone box:)
ReplyDeleteGreat catch! There is so much here that makes me wonder. I walk past panhandlers daily, but never saw one use the change for a phone call there's something kind of hopeful in that.
ReplyDeleteHer clothing looks to0 good for her to be a street person. I think her panhandling is more of a business. Her partner was working with his cup kitty corner to her.
DeleteI agree with SC, we hardly have any pay telephones in the street here. You got her look!
ReplyDeleteAlexander Graham Bell the inventor of the phone lived in Brantford, Ontario, Canada. Perhaps we should declare all pay phones historic sights. :)
DeleteSeems like she is a pretty well-groomed and classy dresser for a panhandler.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great capture!
ReplyDeleteI overheard a pan handler in Las Vagas say he had already made over $200 at 11AM!!
ReplyDeleteI often photograph pay phones when I see them, which is not often. Most no longer work, so this is quite a rare image. I like your idea of declaring pay phones historic monuments. Love the expression on her face. She must be one of the few people without her own cell phone.
ReplyDeleteNow there is something you don't see much any more. I think she caught you though!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like she spotted you taking her photo too!
ReplyDeleteYep. She looks like she's doing well enough with her "job."
ReplyDeleteI can't remember when I last saw anyone on a pay phone! Or even saw a pay phone. In Oregon, even the panhandlers have cell phones. (I don't necessarily think that's a great thing, but it is true.). We never see panhandlers here in Florida and I am afraid to ask why.
ReplyDeleteI don't remember when the last time was that I saw a pay telephone in use. What a great capture, especially with that facial expression.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fine capture.
ReplyDeleteSurprised to see that payphone! I knew a woman that panhandled and made a fair living from it.
ReplyDeleteOh my! I haven't seen a payphone in years! What a great expression you caught.
ReplyDeleteShe's giving you the grin... suggesting she's interested.... in your $$$. lol
ReplyDeleteI don't thinks he looks poor. I notice her nails manicured. That is a pretty fancy telephone. Is this in Toronto?
ReplyDeleteGreat catch! What a fun facial expression! Did she mind you taking her picture ?
ReplyDeleteI have no idea how often payphones are used these days.... not much I imagine.
