Inside the home

Note the dirt floor and the furniture and remember that this house is much less primitive than the house up in the mountains. I hope to see that one sometime but Arceli worries about the climb because of my heart surgery and shattered left knee. She also worries about the NPA (New peoples' Army) who intensely dislike westerners and who maintain a presence in the mountains.

The neighborhood children know I have brought candy and fireworks and crowd in the door to greet me.

Here, Nanay is throwing candy in the air for the children to catch or scrabble around for.

Charles, fantastic!

You've caught simple, everyday situations in their lives and convey the feeling of the situation through your photos very vividly. I really like this style of photography - story telling. I think the photo of the girl on the church fence in your other post also fits this description.

Keep them coming, please!
