Witchdoctors or Sangomas

as they are called here. Selling their medicine on the sidewalk.

I did not want to get a frontal photo, as I did not know how they will react.

[Sally Ings]

Great street capture. I have never taken pictures of the sangomas here as one doesn't want to risk upsetting them.

[Mary Siegle]

Interesting. Nice street shot!

Interesting - Since 2007, the Sangomas have been legally recognized in South Africa as 'traditional health practitioners.'

[Pyrrhula]

Great candid and street scene capture.

[Islandgirl]

Interesting street scene, I never heard of Sangomas!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Good choice I think. There are some people groups that do not like to be photographed. I would suspect they would feel that way. I keep thinking as I look at what's on the ground that the bright happy colors belie the dark things they're into. Good catch!

[LManning (Laura)]

A fascinating street scene!
