Dakar - Senegal

This crafts woman embraces the exotic nature of the people of Senegal.


A man and his daughter at a doorway of a building painted in traditional pastel colors.


A statue on Isle de Goree pays tribute where African slaves were taken, then bought and sold, before being loaded onto ships and sent to western countries. It was a very strange feeling to wander along the pathways and visit some of the heritage buildings from that disgraceful period of time.


Elaborately decorated transportation buses in downtown Dakar.


The women of Senegal are beautiful ! The children are precious ! But still a place to keep up your guard when wandering the local markets and streets.
