Back Roads of Dominica, There we Met

walking the back streets in Dominica, West Indies..... i met this lady several times serendipitously on different days...in different places... on a small but beautiful island... fragile to the whipping winds of the hurricanes a few years back effecting Puerto Rico, Dominica, St Croix and many others...

i often wonder what happened to her and all those finding cover under the unrelenting bending and push of such storms.. so many homes so fragile to the elements...

i never forget how lucky i am in comparison. i worry about heavy snows on the roof.. a power outage... such a small insignificant troubles in comparison...

I love you West Indies.. and miss you.. coming back for you soon... birthplace of my photography and a big piece of my heart
