It's an African game...I think it may originally been played in the ground with small pits. I played it with my kids when they were young. This set was at our library.
...is to fill 52 themes, one a week for the year. Some weeks, maybe I'll try to find several photos to fit the themes. Others, I may spend more time trying to perfect one that seems best to represent the theme. Three years of a photo-a-day opened my eyes, now I want to hone my skills.
Somehow, a camera allows me to see more deeply and awakens the eye. For me, undertaking these year-long challenges is a way to become more aware of the world that swirls around me.
May one be permitted to ask Bobbie, if in fact you are one of the Ancients who played this Ancient Game. As todate I had never heard speak of it?
ReplyDeletelove the color and depth...never heard of that game, but it looks interesting!
ReplyDeleteNever heard of Mancala - learned something new today!

ReplyDeleteAn uncommon game, played with beautifully polished pebbles and photographed with a nice dof, makes for an interesting post!
ReplyDeleteThose little glass pebbles look like too much of a temptation for me, I bet they feel great in your fingertips.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colors and smooth textures.
ReplyDeleteGreat colours and lovely shallow DoF....I've not heard of this game and I love games...so Google here I come
