Two mud covered cards are all that remain of a deck that men in this neighborhood would use to gamble.
The town of Indiana, Philippines, was hit by a terrible typhoon, causing flood waters to reach 8 feet. In the neighborhood where I shot, 8 were confirmed dead and 3 still missing. Most of the residents lost all of thier homes and posessions.
Please see my other work in this series for more evidence of the destruction.
Ben... your photos of this tragedy is simply touching! Although I haven't been there to witness the destruction, thru your photos, it made me feel like, as a filipino, i was a victim myself. And that's very painful feeling which my kababayans felt right after. Thank you for sharing your photos.
