Photography

Pictures and cameras are always welcome but do not take pictures indiscriminately . Always ask permission from the subjects you wish to include in your picture. They might request you to pay a small sum of money, and would willingly cooperate if you oblige. And when the subjects have agreed to cooperate, please not ask for unusual poses.
Avoid taking pictures of nude people, children or adults, or people in ragged apparel. Ghanaians resent this, as they believe that these pictures could be used to paint a negative image of the country.

You are prohibited from photographing security installations such as military or police baracks, border installations, airport point of entry installations, broadcasting and power installations and the Castle (State House) Osu.
Ask permissions before you take pictures of shrines or sacred places.
