What is interesting is the one man a little off from the center walking on through the devastation with bags on his shoulders. So many people died and yet this one man stands tall in the midst of the chaos. The people in the foreground seem to be looking at him as if seeing him as an example to follow on his journey to a new life.
It’s not a shame to cry when one is in pain. This picture shows the emotional pain this man was going through during the aftermath of the 7.0 Earthquake that shook and crumbled Port Au Prince Haiti. The man’s pain is the main subject of the photo and it really connects to a human’s emotions.
