People of Gambia and Senegal
Photos of Gambian and Senegalese People
People.
The other side of traveling.
No monuments, no museums, no gardens or palaces.
To really get to know a country, you have to interact with its people.
Photography always kept my attention and I got my first SRL camera when I was 16 years old.
During my Visual Arts studies at University, I decided to engage myself in a photo project to last for a few years.
So, from 2001 until 2005, my main purpose of traveling was to capture images of people.
I made hundreds of photos of people using my CANON EOS 1 film camera.
On this page I collect some of the best photos I have from The Gambia and Senegal in West Africa.
[message_box type=”error”]NOTE: These images were made more than 10 years ago using a film camera (not digital). Visit my photo project People of the World.[/message_box]
