Juxtapostion

Working with different teams can be such a blessing: not only do I have the opportunity to meet new people, but I gain exposure to a lot of different industries professional fields: the most recent being video production (well, the filming part at least!).

This past week I had the opportunity to explore my city with a group of creative filmmakers and share the the beauty, the comical, the bizarre, and the darkness that inhabits this place - most noticeably the juxtaposition between the big toothy smiles of a village toddler and the generosity of his vivacious mother, the child labor and animal abuse at a brick factory, and the sight of burning feet of a corpse at the sacred cremation site, which were soon knocked off with a bamboo stick and shoved  under the rest of the burning corpse.

Here are some photos that I took while out with the film crew...
