Sacred Work
A fisherman checks his net in Lake Bosumtwi, Ghana. Locals consider the lake sacred. "Souls are said to say goodbye to God at Lake Bosumtwi," explains Your Shot photographer António Mesquita. "Therefore, it is forbidden to use boats on the lake and tradition dictates that they can only fish in the lake using wooden planks."
