Ο καταστροφικός εγκέλαδος που χτύπησε το Νεπάλ, ευαισθητοποίησε μια ομάδα φωτογράφων της περιοχής οι οποίοι δημιούργησαν έναν λογαριασμό στο Instagram με όνομα @nepalphotoproject, αφιερωμένο στις καταστροφές του Νεπάλ. Στον συγκεκριμένο λογαριασμό, θα μπορείτε να βλέπετε φωτογραφίες με περιεχόμενο πραγματικού χρόνου. Ο σκοπός της δημιουργίας του συγκεκριμένου λογαριασμού είναι να βοηθήσει εκείνους που αναζητούν ακόμη δικούς τους ανθρώπους, αλλά και να ενημερώνονται οι αρμόδιοι οργανισμοί για την κατάσταση που επικρατεί στην περιοχή. Δείτε στη συνέχεια μια κικρή συλλογή από τις φωτογραφίες που έχουν αναρτηθεί.

As I leave, let me speak about the people of the soil. They lived through the trauma of the earth shaking and their world collapsing around them and yet they smile at every stranger walking through pointing cameras and asking heart wrenching questions! I wonder how do they smile and sing amidst complete destruction? I Their resilience and strength to crawl out of any situation, dust themselves up and move on is mind boggling! I wish I would have met them in happier times and watched them dance and play in the rain enjoying the smell of the soil, that today has engulfed them!

Photograph 1 – Expedition KINTANG. I’ve spent the last 12 days covering the Nepal Earthquake and working with my friends in Kathmandu, who are heavily invested in reaching out to fellow citizens in need. One of the most fascinating aspects of what has unfolded in Nepal over the past week is how the new generation of Nepali’s are utilizing technology and social media platforms to facilitate their efforts in gathering and distributing relief. There are several different groups and anarchic platforms that have emerged and its been a collaboration of all forces for it have become a ‘First and Immediate’ response for the Quake affected. I’ve had the opportunity to work with @ntgk and @bhushanshilpakar at the Yellow House and yesterday I volunteered to go on a scouting/distribution mission with my friends at Grass Root Movement in Nepal (GMIN) the remote and severely affected village of Kuntang. This is a part of a photo series that will unfold ‘A Day in the Life’ – of these young volunteers who are putting in their blood and sweat to reach out and help. The series will also delve into aspects of how – Terrain, Ethnicity, Politics and Weather have quickly become stumbling blocks for aid and relief distribution. THIS PHOTO – Crossing some mesmerising landscape along the Trishuli river in Nuwakot district after crossing Galchi. A five member crew of team GMIN left early morning to get a head start.

Photograph 2 – Expedition Kimthang. MSG in da house ! On our way to Kintang we drive across this truck ferrying volunteers from self styled Indian Guru Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh’s socio-spiritual organisation Dera Sacha Sauda. A few months ago the 47 year old guru was in the limelight when his film MSG – Messenger of God got tangled into controversy. The ‘rockstar baba’ received over a million hits on video sharing websites. We drove by MSG’s huge relief camp, located above Trishuli Bazaar. Saw hundreds of volunteers. All help is great and much appreciated at this point in time. Just as long as it doesn’t come with strings attached or a hidden agenda.
