[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A bit of rain didn't stop these women from their daily dance session. This park looks a bit like a tent city--the banners are promoting fire safety. One young couple living here under a tarp are taking care of their two-week old baby--born five days before the quake struck. The mother and child hadn't even left the hospital. But they're here by choice--they have a home, they just don't want to spend the night there.

Bonjour Ted,
Quel courage pour ces millions de chinois qui se retrouvent sans abri, pour eux la vie continue certes pas comme avant, mais je suis sûre d'une chose, même aprés avoir tout perdu, ils se relèveront de ce cauchemar. Il n'est pas facile d'imaginer ce qu'ils ressentent, peut être le choix de danser pour exorciser tout çà?
Ta photo est unique, Bravo
Amicalement Odile

Life goes on. this is a very good illustration with tents in the background.

A good image,
Thx
