So I feel like we need to have a day of this.

after so many days of showing you the beauty

(and so much more to show you)

lets talk about the elephant in the room

Because its truth and its sad.

but at the same time its part of what makes you fall in love with Haiti.

The juxtaposition of the beauty and hardship

it slaps you in the face and leaves you reeling

and you love these people even more because you can’t even fathom having their disposition if you were faced with the same thing.

(ps…I was in a black and white mood for some of these:) )

these tents are built on the median.  the median. let that sink in. Imagine sleeping at night in a tent with no electricity around knowing your inches from some crazy traffic.
I left this last one in color.  I didn’t think the black and white gave you the full picture. Of the water and the trash and devastation, with the wares being sold as normal life goes on as they try to just get food to eat.
