Description

Driving throuth the very hot and dangerous town of Carrefour Haiti, I took a chance and shot this picture while driving by. Seams peaceful enough but looks can be deceiving. The locals now days do not like to have their picture taken and if caught...well, who knows what can happen to you.

Thanks for the comments guys.
Due to the political unrest that is going on there, people are being shot and I am not taking about camera, understandable that they are not to trustee of the man in the nice car pointing a camera a them. #2280816
