A photo a week in the life of LaLa Photography, using various photographic mediums.
Week Three
For those not aware, three quarter's of the Australian state of Queensland experienced flash-flooding that has been described as an in-land tsunami. These destructive floods have affected many communities and families. The degrees of loss range from citizens losing possessions, their homes, right through to losing loved ones.
As the waters recede and the trail of destruction left by the floods starts to show its ugly face, communities are faced with the grim task of rebuilding their life. In true Australian spirit, every citizen is helping in some way or form.
Week three of LaLa Life is a photo of LaLa Photography's tiny contribution to aid in the relief of those affected. I would like to think that while the contribution is small, it is still a contribution none-the-less. I can only imagine what these families are going through; my heart breaks and tears form in my eyes at the thought. I live on the other side of Australia but that doesn't mean I can't do my bit to help...
Australia is the envy of many countries - we still value mate-ship; we do not capitalise on someone's hardship, we get up and lend a helping hand. I urge my Facebook fans, clients and followers to consider donating to assist in the flood relief efforts. Whether physically or monetarily, every little bit counts.
