With Haiti, our prayers…

Our thoughts and prayers are with the people of Haiti and their families and friends around the world. Certainly, it seems that Haiti will never be the same.
MetroCollective’s Daniel Cima has traveled to Haiti many times over the years and was recently there exploring the country’s raw mysticism. Here is a selection from Cima’s powerful and provocative new series on Voodoo.
And above, a photograph from Cima’s award-winning work on the spiritual cleansing at Saut d’Eau, an annual ritual that brings healing and hope to Haitians.
Cima also recently received an Honorable Mention from the Prix de la Photographie/Px3 for his work in Haiti documenting the tragic struggle of children with Hydrocephalus.
UPDATE: The American Red Cross, through an effort backed by the U.S. State Department, has set up a system by which you can make a $10 donation to support American Red Cross relief efforts in Haiti by texting/SMS the word ‘Haiti’ to 90999.
