11. Canoe on the Black Volta River, Akanyakrom, 2009

Description:
An Ewe fisherman from Akayakrom works part time as a guide for tourists visiting Bui National Park. Here he readies a boat to take a group up river to view the park's resident hippo population. Akanyakrom was among the villages flooded by Bui Lake as water levels rose behind Bui Dam after 2012. Hippos were driven upstream by flooding and locally made canoes could no longer be used to ferry tourists because of the lake's winds and waves. Akanyakrom, 12 June, 2009.

16. Southwest view from Banda rockshelter, 2009

Description:
Looking southwest from the Banda rockshelter, the view encompasses land that since 1971 has been part of Bui National Park, a Wildlife Protected Area covering more than 1800 km2. Prior to that, these lands west of the Banda hills were important to local people as a source of "bush meat." Archaeological evidence suggests that for centuries hunting was provided an important food source for Banda peoples. This is the first of eight images in a south-to-north panorama from this viewpoint. Banda hills, 28 June, 2009.
