Haiti – February 2010
I went to Haiti within a couple of weeks of the Jan 2010 earthquake. I had gone with the intention of shooting the good being done to help the people of Haiti. I left with a feeling of pride and hoped that what I had done photographically would bring some good. The Haitian people have a special place in my heart.
The internal quarrel of how best to produce the images was eventually won by the video slideshow option – I voice annotated it. I hope you have the patience to watch it all, I felt it was a story worth telling:
