Fishing Villages
Ocean fishing is important for the whole of Ghana's coastal region. There are many colourful fishing harbours and vibrant fish markets to discover. I love spending time in the various fishing villages, observing the fishermen as they leave or return with their small colorful canoes. I am always fascinated by photographing the women who buy fresh fish in the early morning and later sell it at the local markets. Although much of the fishermen’s work is a daily routine, I always encounter new situations when I visit these villages, depending on the day of the week, time of day or season of the year.
