New Orleans, 7 months post-Katrina : This is a collection of photos I took while in New Orleans seven months after the hurricane and floods. Most are of the 9th Ward or the downtown/French Quarter area. I suggest viewing this gallery in order, as a slideshow. As in Sri Lanka, I had a difficult time taking photos of the most affected areas. Tourism in the area is simply inconsiderate. I feel it is important, however, for people to see the difference between those places which have been encouraged and aided in their recovery and those places where the community's return and rebuilding has met with structural apathy at best, outright structural resistance most often. I probably don't need to spell out the race and class of the different groups.

tsunami affected areas, 6-7 months post : While on the east coast of Sri Lanka, I saw some of the effects of the tsunami. The devastation was overwhelming and the recovery slow, and I felt mixed feelings about making these sorts of visits. As the media moves on to more current tragedies and scintillations, however, it is important to remember that this recovery effort will take years and sustained international attention. While these photos are all of the areas directly affected by the tsunami, it is difficult to talk about the north and east of Sri Lanka without mentioning the fact that while the tsunami affected areas are receiving much attention and aid, there are other areas (and sometimes overlapping areas) in as much need after suffering through decades of conflict.
