On January 11th, 2008, we took a day trip from Punta Cana to the capital city of the Dominican Republic - Santo Domingo. Santo Domingo is a vibrant city with a population of approximately 3 million people. The main tourist attraction is the colonial city and it is believed that it also the site of Christopher Columbus's tomb.
Once we were finished the main part of our tour we were given about an hour to explore the area and shop. While we were walking down the main shopping street we came upon this man asleep on a park bench and I couldn't resist the photo opportunity.
While the original is in color, I converted this image to B&W in photoshop as I thought it captured the old world feel of the Colonial city and made for a more dramatic image of this man asleep on the bench.
