loved & loathed

Not always has a photographers job been a niceone. We have been
smiled at, spat on and threatened with seizure of our camera's. I
remembered been whacked by an Ex-President boyguard in the head at
Anomabu in Ghana for getting too close and barely two weeks ago
threathned with arrest for filming on a school's refuse dump with my
pal Fui. However for the passion I still strive on and so does loads
of my colleagues. We all have our stories, A few of my loved and
loathed.

Ghana Ahoufe

Not "too long" ago, a woman going to have her hair done needed not be
too worried about money for relaxers, shampoo and conditioners. All
that was needed was "shrichi ahuma" . Shrichi ahuma is a 91.44m
ceiling fan thread made in China. The natural hair is well gathered
and neatly tied up in columns by the thread. Times have indeed
changed. I have been told. Change I do welcome but guess i am getting
too old with all these "human" hair and "contemporary" hair do. The
all "natural" Ghanaian "ahoufe", dearly missed.
