Work from Haiti

I've been in Haiti for a little while now doing work for a few NGO's. I've had time to post a few images on my blog:

I'd make it a link but I'm not allowed because I have a low post count.

Today started off the 3 days of prayer and I was honored to be at a few of these gatherings which were just amazing. I am begining to see why Jesus chose to spend his time with the outcasts and poor. There is qualities that develop through their hardship that are so profound.

Right now you'd be hard pressed to find someone in Haiti that did not lose a family member or friend and at these gatherings there is just an amazing sense of worship. Not of questioning or challenging or bitterness but just an outpouring of worship. I don't have any photos or footage from these events up yet but I will in the coming days.

Very good photo-journalism. I must admit I haven't been paying much attention to the situation in Haiti. Thanks for bringing it home a little.
I was not expecting the nudity and, although it was obviously not sexual, a warning might be good anyway.

Thanks LeightonH. Sorry about that. I'm glad I was able to shed a little light.

There's been some pretty intense stuff here but I've personally decided it isn't overly useful to photograph other than for the drama factor. I really wish to make images that show a more human side of things through relatable emotions. If that is possible.
