Dogon country photographs
September 18, 2008
The UK-based Quality Improvement Agency will be using two of my photos of Dogon country (Mali) in publicly-funded educational materials.
The first is of cliff paintings in Songo, Mali. Songo hosts an excision ceremony every three years for all boys of age. For better or worse, it is also attended now by many tourists and international journalists.
The second photo is of a pair of typical Dogon granaries, which store millet, onions, tomatoes, and other supplies. This one is on the cliffs outside Teli, Mali.
