These images were taken in Port au Prince, Haiti two months after the earthquake and first set of images which were taken days after the quake. It was important for me to return to Haiti after most of the foreign press had left, as I knew that the need and suffering would be just as great, and yet getting far less attention. I encourage other photographers and journalists to continue to go to Haiti and document the gravity of the situation there even though newspapers and magazines have all but stopped publishing such images and reports.
A young girl peers through a rusted, tin gate in an impoverished neighborhood that was hit hard by the earthquake. Most families continue to live outdoors in Haiti and with rain and hurricane seasons approaching, their situations will become more and more difficult.
Bodies piled on top of each other in the morgue of Port au Prince's main hospital. International medical aid has been a true blessing for Haiti, however there is still a great deal of need for treatment as well new injuries coming in daily as people continue to search through partially destroyed buildings for usable items with no safety equipment or training.
A woman prays in front of a damaged church located within the main hospital complex.
A man, most likely mentally ill and still living in the rubble of one of Haiti's most damaged areas, walks through the unstable remains of home near where he and his mother live.
Medical and other waste on the ground in the main hospital complex.
International Medical Corps staff tend to a Haitian man who was severely injured by falling stones while clearing rubble on one of the many cleaning crews which are now clearing the city by hand.
A worker tries to bring down a large, concrete and stone wall with a small hammer. Workers are left with basic or no equipment and little or no training, tasked with removing all of the rubble from Port au Prince so rebuilding can begin.
As always great compelling images. Too bad they will be forgotten by the press. It's up to others to tell the story.
good work

I think it is an amazing picture. Unfortunately yes war creates terrible things but the arguement should not be, why are we there the arguement should be why arent people supporting our troops. We follow orders we go to protect our country. Whether you agree or disagree were there.
