Documenting Brooklyn Vodou Response

Documenting anything that has any relevance to religion is always going to be difficult.  There will always be controversy because there are always two sides to religions, and whether someone believes in a certain religion there will always be someone who will have something to say and spark some sort of controversy.  Now, the possibility of capturing such events is shown in the photos, but the real question is whether or not they are real, and judging by the looks of the photos, they look real.  As for its value, a lot can be learned from looking at a religious photo, sometimes it is shown in a way that can’t be seen in person, it might shed some light and reveal something that can’t be seen first-handed.  Now is this type of documentation of this religion intrusive, Yes, religion can be intrusive because some people treat their religion as a private matter and if the audience viewing this content happens to be sensitive about the way they are portraying Vodou and are putting them in the wrong light, they might cause all sorts of conflict resulting in a not so pleasant aftermath.  Photographing religion can cause more difficulties than the chances of getting successful photos, but if risks are taken and religion is documented in the form of photography, then the result is an visual experience that can’t be seen anywhere else.
