A year today with this one. The most thankful.
Not the largest wave, not at all, but just look at the size of the man compared to the seawall and the size of the wave.

In Terms of Being Alone 2015
Three Syrian boys who declined to give their names, arriving the outskirts of the Zaatari Refugee Camp in Jordan to wait for the buses that take people back to Syria. 4 busses leave daily and people return for a variety of reasons. Most of them would rather take their chances in Syria than live in Zaatari. The situation every day is incredibly volatile as there are more people trying to leave than their are seats on the busses. Riot police monitor the situation as people climb over each other and hoist people up into open windows.
This is a digital test for a series I did on this plot of ground of people passing by.
Yo heads up friends I’m going to be reblogging this work an inappropriate amount as it comes up. Important work in an important place.
Hey everybody, I’m about to get on a plane to head back to Jordan for a bit to keep working on a project about refugees there. This time I’m focusing on Iraqi Christians who fled ISIS last year. I’ll be posting regular portraits,vignettes and updates over at instagram where I’m @michaelfriberg. Follow Along!
