What a clean and very nice photo. A totally different perspective of Ghana for me.
I love her work! And her writings on photography:
“Traditionally, the African photographer has been an artisan. He’s not been considered any different from a carpenter or mason or vulcanizer…The African Photographer and the camera are still new neighbours… neighbours who are gradually getting to know each other… and I can only wish them all the best.”
