Ghana photo opportunities?

Hi there,

I will be travelling to Ghana in Africa this August, and was wondering whether

there were any particular sights that I shouldn't miss. I'll be around Accra

for a while, but plan on making some trips out of the city as well.

If any of you have been to Ghana and assessed it with a photographer's eye, I'd

really appreciate hearing about where I should go.

I do most kinds of photography but tend to prefer landscape and nature

photography. The current gear I have is a 350D, 17-85IS, 70-200 f/4L, 10-22, 100

mm 2.8 macro (all Canon).

Thanks in advance,

Sid

if you like to shoot series:</p>

the central bus station in Accra - for pictures of the beautifully painted "mummy lorries" with inscriptions like FOLLOW JESUS, BEWARE OF WOMEN etc., and for people</p> open-air barber shops - for "barber directories" </p> coffin makers - caskets in Ghana tend to be special and rather individual works of art. Fun!</p> Uli
