The dead is something that has been hard for me to shoot. Especially at night when it's just you and them in sight.

How wind and water was able to bring this boat ashore is still something that amazes me until now.

Having covered almost every major disaster that has hit this country ever since I started out in 2008 has made it quite rare for me to personally be shocked with what I can see out of these events. It's day 15 and I'm still overwhelmed by the scope and extent that Yolanda has done. It's the perfect example when pictures alone can never replace actually being there.
