[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
again, as in case of Haiti, shot with cheap compact camera with auto mode ( the only available ), but I can see very few pictures from Jamaica here that tell a story. This is during Maroon festival in their mountain village called Accompong, where celebration of tradition and African roots and rituals is mixed with commercial parties, sound systems coming even from Kingston and lots of vendors. Ganja, although illegal on the island, is tolerated in this area, so the police do nothing about people like those.

Quite good picture, it really tells the story, and is suprisingly good technically - esp. for the compact camera.

hi Swiatek, it is a nice documentary picture, there is a lot of action in the frame and somehow you managed to make a clear shot.. good stuff

Great quick and natural shot of rural Jamaica or in my opinion 'Real Jamaica'. Thanks for the notes, it helps to explain the visual story.

I like this picture coz I think it must be very difficult to mak...I learn also with your note, so, nice job!

ehi Swiatek. always close to ganja! :-)

interesting how obvious the sell and deal with ganja there ! nice panorama pic
