… while age crumbles! by Sumit Samant on Flickr.
Here’s an amazing picture from the Haiti Charity Print Auction. I feel this crumbling face is a great metaphor for the crumbling buildings of Haiti.

I met this old man in a tiny cafe in Khardung village on the way from Nubra to Leh. He seemed unmindful of complexities of modern life as he peacefully prayed with his rosary.
He did agree to pose for me but only for a couple of minutes before returning to his reverie.

I will be entering these images into the Flickr group Charity Print Auctions:
www.flickr.com/groups/charityprintauctions/
for the Haiti Earthquake Appeal.
The prints that are for auction are 18x12 inches and will be printed on professional paper.
To bid, you need to comment below the image with the amount that you would like to bid.
When the auction closes, the person that has bid the most, wins the print.
The auction will close on the date set in the thread, in the case of the Haiti Earthquake Appeal, it will finish on Tuesday 26th January 2010 at midnight.
The winning bidder has to pay that amount to the Red Cross:
www.redcross.org.uk/emergencysite/default.aspx?id=88916
When they do this, they MUST make a screen grab of the donation confirmation page to send to me. This is the only way I will know that you have paid and can arrange for the print to be sent to you.
