Shortlist, Portraiture. From a project named The Labadi Community, featuring a community “shaped by canoe fishing and fish processing” on Accra’s coast in Ghana, on the Gulf of Guinea. Ron Timehin: “These young boys from the Labadi community are quickly becoming men, already engaging in manual labour and fishing to help support their village. One even has a child of his own. The Ghanaian flag on the left is a tribute to their country, which they take pride in.”
