"A Day's Catch"
The Ga people of Ghana are known as fishermen and this is a living for them. The nets were very large and heavy so a friend and I decided to walk over and lend a hand. They were out there for hours and it took some time to pull that heavy net back to shore. As the net was fully pulled from the water we pull out seaweed to see what was caught for their family's meal. It wasn't much but a little boy stands close by as I captured what little food they caught that day. Every day they hope for a bigger catch but no matter what these people are grateful for what they do get.
