back



so. went down to gulfport, mississippi - the area in which i covered katrina last year. i went to cover a ct. group who went down to help with rebuilding.

it was amazing to be back. i felt lucky to go and meet the folks i did - one of them was preacher wayne myers - here he is while holding a church service in a library of a school. his church was destroyed in the hurricane and now they are rebuilding. it was inspiring seeing this man at work - rarely do i meet someone like him. there were a number of others who were inspiring as well. many of them still fighting to get back on their feet, more than a year later.

i know it's sounds cheesy, but it's especially during trips like this that i adore being a photojournalist, and a witness.
