In African cultures children are considered adults as to their spirit and way of thinking, imprisoned in still immature bodies.
They live at the boundaries of the human life, next to its beginning and end.
(P. Erny, L'enfant dans la pensée traditionelle de l'Afrique noire, L'Harmattan, 1991).
When someone dies, they are the ritual medium which helps the deceased to find his or her way to the second world.
Their dresses of leaves alludes to spring and the rebirth of life.
This image was taken in January 2015 at Ninghali (Bandiagara - Mali) during the thanksgiving dance for the construction of a barrage that makes farming possible in eight villages on the plateau of Bandiagara. The project was funded by shareholders of Metis Africa and Tavola Valdese Foundation.

Nelle civiltà africane i bambini sono considerati adulti nella ragione e nello spirito, imprigionati tuttavia in un corpo ancora immaturo.
Sono gli esseri dell'inizio e della fine: abitano i confini della vita.
(Erny P., L'enfant dans la pensée traditionelle de l'Afrique noire, L'Harmattan, 1991).
Quando muore qualcuno sono il medium rituale che aiuta il defunto a trovare la strada verso il secondo mondo.
La partecipazione alla danza della comunità vestiti di fronde allude alla primavera e alla rinascita della vita.
La foto è stata scattata a Ninghali (Bandiagara, Mali) nel gennaio di quest'anno, durante una danza rituale di ringraziamento per la costruzione di una diga che rende possibile l'attività agricola per gli otto villaggi circostanti.
Il progetto è stato finanziato dagli amici di Metis Africa e dalla Tavola Valdese.
Now how's this for a coincidence?? I've been meaning to shoot these signs on Queen West for awhile. So tonight, I took my shot and then crossed the street to find this gentleman dancing outside of the store here! How fabulous is that? If only to have had him actually dancing between the signs but that's what Photoshop is for! ;)

We had a Flamenco Dancer at our recent Camera Club Meeting so I had my first attempt at cutting and pasting her into a more appropriate background than the Studio at the Bellhouse Club. Really pleased with the effect. The fan she is holding in her right hand was a right so-and-so to properly remove the original background from as it had LOTS of little holes in it.

- Day Four -
After our trip around Apgar Mountains, we headed eastward. We drove route 2 through the Rocky Mountains until we met the rolling hills and plains. It felt like we were in a western movie; we even saw buffalo to top it off! We drove out to the town of Browning, where we met a woman in a curio store. She was very knowledgeable & gave us a map to our next destination - Two Medicine Lake & Running Eagle Falls. We saw some beautiful & curious things along the way!
