Sapelo Island is a barrier island, reachable only by plane or boat. Visitors are only allowed here via organized tours. I visited Hog Hammock (population 47), an African-American community of Gullah and Geechee descent. Their unique linguistic and cultural heritage is preserved because they have always lived in relative isolation in rural areas such as Sapelo. Hog Hammock welcomed our group with an oyster roast. I abstract the man doing the roasting by photographing him in silhouette and surrounding him with smoke coming from the stove in the lower right part of the frame. This image appeals to several senses – we not only see the image, but can also imagine the smoky odor, the taste of the oysters, and listen to the crackle of the flames.
