Okay, folks,
This is what Haiti really looks like. How did Jorge capture this in such HD that it almost appears to be 3-D? In the first scene of the family, look at the catastrophic deforestation. It's funny how when you're in the moment, you don't necessarily see what is right before you. I was focused on the day, the children, the view, the contrast between my comfortable life in the U.S. and what was before me in Haiti. I noticed the bare land--but these pictures make me see other things than before. Then in the final scene, the sweet l ittle girl on the far right is the one who held my hand for an hour in the blog post called "A Haitian Celebration" and smoothed back my frizzy bangs so I looked more Haitian. Look at the tenderness with which the little girls hold each other. That, my friends, is Haiti. Just remarkable photos . . . Thank you, Jorge.
