Looking for photos

I'm in the middle of an art project again, and I could use some help. I'm looking for photos of people. Photos that display the depth of humanity in a person.

I'm working with a theme of the neediness of mankind - not just the refugee in Africa, or the victim of injustice in the middle east, but the day to day neediness. That person whose eyes just scream of their brokeness. The child who you look at and wonder what the deeper story is. The people you encounter every day in the mall and in the grocery store and library, and the street. So yes, I'm after some photos from around the world, but also pictures from the western world. The elderly, the abused woman, the oppressed immigrant, the crying child, the homeless man and so on.

If you have any photos that you'd be willing to send to me, or if you can think of a good place to look for pictures, leave me a comment here, or pop me an email at the address in my profile. Thanks!

God is so funny.... BEFORE I read this I was lead to go to the library last week and again today looking for info on homeless and the downtown eastside and I happen to have some picture books that would work well. I will bring them to house church tonight.
