LOL I read the title as "Emo begging" at first...expected to find a long-haired youth with his hand out.

He may be broke but doesn't he look happy?

Best. Picture. Ever.

Brilliant shot! I wonder if the gent in the background knows what a photo he's missing out on?

The rough life of a child star...

lol maybe this is a "Before they were famous" type thing

That's funny! But I though Elmo was like 4 years old? He looks tall there.

Cool shot, funny shot.

See the black bag behind Elmo? There's a LowePro belt system in there with a 1dMkIII inside along with several lenses. Now we know how Mark has extra money to buy all his camera stuff! (And the Bentley too.)

Great whimsical capture, the detail on his fur is really amazing. Oddly enough, I have never seen this guy before.

"VH1 Where are they now expose"

In the late 1980's and early nineties he was the world famous child star,
Like so many that rocketed to stardom before him, when the popularity faded, he fell on hard times.
All his millions spent on women, fast cars, and drugs.
Then he hit rock bottom....

DOF control, a sharp 85 and a 1Ds helped me out there.

85mm 1.8? I really should get one of those. And a 1Ds, while I'm at it.

I love the bright color of his fur. Great capture.

Great for a chuckle Jason, As mentioned, nice detail too.

And I suppose he just wasted the rest?
