Friday's Fascinating Fotographs from Fieldwork

Dept. of , Okyeampoma, June 6, 2003 at 12:21:26 AM CEST

Members of the Presbyterian Church of Ghana are celebrating Palm Sunday (Asamankese/Ghana, 2000)

"Cherchez le Chercheur" No. V Let's get away from last week's traditional issues. Here’s another picture of a fieldworker trying to get involved in his field: he does everything to feel, to act and to look like ‘them’. If only he knew how he really stands out from the crowd…

All dressed in their neat Sunday costumes, the Christian congregation gathers after the 3,5 hours church service to parade the main streets of the town. They are celebrating Palm Sunday (Jesus entering Jerusalem, as you know) with cheers, bells, a monstrously noisy brass band and bound branches from coconut and palm trees. Though the rainy season has already started the tropical sun burns heavily. The bald (bold?) man in the middle of the crowd certainly suffers the most.

Link for "last weeks..."

Okyeampoma, nice picture as every friday...

Have a great weekend!

mystery...

Thanks, warauduati!
But due to a mysterious intervention, the missing link was added by..., well, I guess one of our attentive ethnolog administrators. I appreciate!
You all have a great weekend, too! See you next week in Muc.

mystery train ...

Mystery, mystery ;o) I just had to jump in -- somehow "XXX" sneeked into the URL and made it invalid. And that's the mystery to me ... where did the "XXX" come from? The mystery train rides on.
Btw, Okyeampoma, go on with your series "Chercher le Chercheur", I really appreciate it.
Another thing: Does anyone object to changing "Photographs" into "Fotographs"? Then we would have "Friday's fascinating Fotographs from Fieldwork" -- the famous quintuple-Fs of Ethno::log ...

trains...

The tripple-X... It's got to do with my absenteeism from Muc.
As for FfFfF - no objection.
Well, Zephyrin, if I continue with the series much longer, there is a high risk for more and more dull pictures entering the Ethno::log. The damage will be on my side...
