Here a few of my shots of Sidney Poitier's Hollywood Walk of Fame Star on Hollywood Boulevard honoring legendary actor and movie star Sidney Poitier. I arrived at dusk to see his Star adorned with flowers and tributes arranged around his Star and to the side a foam core mounted image of Sidney with a white floral garland around his photo. It was a lovely tribute a great man who broke racial barriers and opened up the movie industry for greater opportunities for people of color. May his memory be a blessing for us all. Rest In Peace dear Sir. @sidney_poitier_ #sidneypoitier #tosirwithlove @hwdwalkoffame #hollywoodwalkoffame #guesswhoscomingtodinner #thedefiantones #intheheatofthenight #lilliesofthefield #araisininthesun #academyawards @theacademy #academyawardwinner (at Hollywood Walk of Fame) https://www.instagram.com/billybennight/p/CYvNUEqr9xb/?utm_medium=tumblr
