Here are some photos from last nights photography in the dump. When I arrived at 4am, some kinds were partying in a shack on the dump, yelling away. I photographed them then some of the places people were living as well as some dumpscapes, here is a selection of those images. After the light came up I shot Tri-x at 200ASA with the Leicas. I gave the boys at the dump some mama noodles (the kids like to eat them raw as a treat), the 2 younger boys devoured them. I will pick some more up tonight before heading back. The boy yesterday were hungry, they really enjoyed the dried mama noodles, they might ask for, need some more tonight if I meet them again. They are eating the mama's in picture number five.
