James Barnor: The 91-year-old's photos bringing Ghana to life

James Barnor started taking photos in the 1940’s when he was given a Baby Brownie camera.

Now aged 91, the Ghanaian-British photographer, who became Ghana’s first international press photographer around the time of independence, still takes photos for his own enjoyment, having taken a course on digital photography at his retirement home.

His work of 75 years paints a vivid picture of the social history of both Ghana and Britain as he lived in both countries for many years.
