Tent Cities

My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

As I stood on that hill, I took in and captured with my camera the sheer scale of the tents erected on the steep hill face. Everywhere I looked were sprawling masses of crude tarpaulin homes as far as the eye could see. Crude makeshift shelters that for now they call home. Tens of thousands of now homeless individuals in these tented communities have united in order to survive, vulnerable to the elements.
