PESO:

Two of my 36,640 scans from Honduras.  The first is a little girl we were
not able to help.  She had a form of spina bifida and was totally
incontinent.  Living in a community where she had to carry water several
miles, washing diapers was a real problem.  The local school refused to
allow her to attend.  I was hoping to get Depends or another disposable
company to provide diapers but, evidently, they get a lot of requests and I
could not find one that would not help.  I think of her often.  She would
be 24 years old now.

This is her sister, also named Maria, but 18 years old.

Technical details -  This is Fuji Neopan which scans as very grainy.  I
used DFine to reduce noise on the second one but nothing on the first.  I
tried Neat Image and it destroyed the texture.  I'm about to decide to
enjoy the grain.

C&C?

Thanks,


Tina
