Burnt Out

Gosh I feel so tired after 8 days in the dump making pictures and the bus rides here to Pattaya. The heat and carrying all the gear I carried wore me right down. When your in the dump shooting you are slimy with sweat, the flies, smell and the heat are overpowering, you have to communicate in foreign languages and make pictures in unknown (potentially dangerous situations) on top of that you have to try to be creative and make strong photographs. Even with all the difficulties I am glad I did it, I cannot get the people I met there out of my mind but gosh it was hard. I need to get into better shape the next time around , maybe I need to get me a HAT!
