MLeeK said:I think that is a vital part of the story here and explaining it along with how people can help is critical to the whole article. There is a HUGE story in WHY they aren't receptive to outsiders and the first thing that people want to do upon reading about something like this is help. With these people going there to help isn't the answer, but are there funds set up for donations thru the churches or even the managers of Tent City?
When my son was in a Children's Hospital for a week at a time (twice) the local restaurants would donate the left overs after banquets... there is SO much like that which could be done, but you don't tell the story here.
That's a good idea. I'm really not sure how to go about it though... Photographing a story about how people who don't like to be photographed...
How would you go about it?
I do understand why they wouldn't want their picture taken. I probably wouldn't want my picture taken either. It's just frustrating in a very selfish way.
It's kind of like how do these photojournalists go overseas and photograph war and poverty etc so authentically, but I can't do the same in my own backyard. :\
I know it sounds selfish but it is what it is.
