Ghana, Africa.
Thinking about the reality of this place, it struck me the challenges differ, but the heart of the people and life of different worlds come through.
What it is: People carrying brightly colored bundles on their head. Umbrellas to shade from the hot sun. People going up steps, a lady sitting by her stall. Boxes. The noise of busy city market. Probably the only place they’ve ever known. Another day to try to sell the necessities of life in order to sustain life.
Camera: Something so normal for us, so much a novelty for them. Then again kids all over the world are a lot the same. Bring out a camera and you bring out the curiosity in kids, and the wonder of exploration, through a lens.
Water: We all need it, but what is casual to us, is valued by many others.
Pineapples and Pop: They beat us, enough said.
Rodents of Unusual Size
Transportation: Getting the feel of daily living without wheels.
Eyes and touch: Healing.
Horizons and Beauty: free
