Update: San Francisco Street Artists (0507-001) on Photoduniya.com

Once a celebrity commented that if she were to suffer, she’d rather be rich and suffer than being poor. So what is worse than being poor?

Update: San Francisco Street Artists (0507-001) on Photoduniya.com
 
This is an update posting for photoduniya.com. If you have read the current projects, San Francisco Street Artists (0507-001) is almost coming towards the end of the schedule.
