We spent a little less than 24 hours in Chaping (where the concert was ) and during that time I had a few extra minutes to roam the streets… Here’s some shots of the amazingly joyful and happy people I bumped into…

These people were nothing but smiles yet they almost all lost their homes, jobs and and even lives of their close friends and family. Their resiliency was remarkable. After I got back from walking around a bit, it was time to shoot the concert and it started to rain!

Sorry there’s not more text in this post… I spent the last hour fussing with my blog trying to make it behave properly… ended up having to take some images down but as usual its getting late and I am tired!
