These are a couple of my favorite shots from Ghana. This was not an easy port. Finding out that Ghana is considered a success story for democracy and order on the African continent really makes me wonder what countries with rougher reputations like Zimbabwe and Nigeria are like. Actually, a man I chatted with in Ghana said I would probably be killed if I went to Nigeria. This doesn't seem far off. Africa is definitely the unruly wild-west of the world, full of crippling poverty and wide-spread corruption. I met some wonderful people here, and I met some real assholes. It is a place that stays with you.
