Description
Penne, my wife-to-be and I took a Caribbean Cruise and one of the stops was in Haiti. Here she is looking at handmade bars of soap in a flea market. After I took this shot with my Rolleiflex, the natives started crowding around us, no good intent in mind.
A woman quickly grabbed us by the arms and escorted us out of there. She said she worked for an American Embassy ambassador and that people in Haiti were 80% Christians and 100% Vodo believers. She said they believed that taking their picture would capture their soul.
