The earthquake took everything the Haitians had: their belongings, the roof over their heads, their friends and relatives. <\/p>\n<p>?Their lives lie in ruins. Fear and despair is written on their faces??<\/p>\n<p>Grarup?s pictures show how police and private security forces attempt to protect the remaining stocks of provisions by defending them with weapons.<\/p>\n<p>The Leica Oskar Barnack Newcomer Award 2011 went to Jing Huang from China.<\/p>\n<p>The competition is named after Leica camera inventor Oskar Barnack (1879-1936).<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/keyassets.timeincuk.net\/inspirewp\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2011\/06\/Jan_20Grarup_205.low2_.jpg\" alt=\"Leica winner\"><\/img><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/keyassets.timeincuk.net\/inspirewp\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2011\/06\/Jan_20Grarup_201.low_.jpg\" alt=\"Leica winner\"><\/img><\/p>\n<p>Picture credits: Jan Grarup<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Photographer Jan Grarup has won the Leica Oskar Barnack Award 2011 for images documenting the aftermath of last year\u2019s devastating earthquake in Haiti. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":324,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[39],"tags":[],"product-category":[],"class_list":["post-16441","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-photo-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.8 (Yoast SEO v26.8) -
