I started the job managing the beach resort a little outside of Accra at the beginning of September. A couple of weeks after starting I started working on the farm project near by in the evenings when I had time.

Here is a little time laps of photos taken from a similar angle over the last 6 weeks. I am now intentionally trying to take the same photo each day to make a more extended time lapse. I can then make it into a neat video also.

This is the only photo I have before digging. It is from the wrong angle though as it is looking back towards the photo position I will be shooting from now on.

Over 10 days went by and I did not shoot a picture at this angle and a lot of things changed. The plants grew, the seedling bed got a sun shade, and a whole other section of rows popped up below the swale.
