We were really lucky to come across these “Little Bee Eaters” whilst on safari in Samburu National Park. They didn’t sit still for long, always moving then flying away, but when they did I was fortunate enough to get this shot. / / (Samburu National Park – Kenya) / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / /

This beautiful creature is the East African bongo, a large antelope that lives in the forest. Different tribes in Africa have legends about the bongos’ various magical powers, which are largely a reflection of their ability to “disappear” into the forest at a moment’s notice. This particular species of bongo is endangered due to habitat destruction and poaching, and now there are more East African bongos in captivity than there are in the wild. Let’s hope that we can help this species before they do a real disappearing act. 100% of the profits from the sale of this print will be donated to Steve Irwin’s Wildlife Warriors Worldwide.

The Himba people live in Northern Namibia and Southern Angola. This Himba mother was photographed in her village in far Northern Namibia. The smooth reddish skin effect is achieved by daily applications of a reddish clay mixed with ash and butter. These ladies apparently never bathe in water.

At the end of a long 14 hour game drive, there’s nothing better than standing with a cold beer and watching the sun set over the plains, before heading back to camp for something to eat! / / (Masai Mara – Kenya) / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / /

Oil painting on linen canvas 1200×600mm The painting was constructed on diagonal lines, all leading the eye to the main bull elephant, who stands firm and proud in front of the water hole. I wanted to convey, the harsh dusty dry land, with the herd of animals having traveled miles in search of water, finaly the male stands in front of the much needed water hole.

A lovely mountain gorilla in Rwanda, it was such a wonderful experience to meet him. He is one of 380 left in Rwanda and his name is Ntakibazo. He is part of the Umubano Group, meaning “neighborliness”. Umubano has 9 individuals: 1 Silverback; 1 Sub adult male; 3 Adult females and 4 Babies. Led by Charles, the dominant silverback, Umubano was formerly a part of the Amahoro group. As Charles matured into a silverback of the same rank as Ubumwe, he could not stand being given orders and decided to stage a fight and challenge Ubumwe. The fight went on for weeks and then months. Finally, Charles managed to snatch from Ubumwe a few females and formed his own group. Since then, he has commanded respect and recognition from Ubumwe.

São Tomé and Príncipe is an island nation in the Gulf of Guinea, off the western equatorial coast of Africa. It consists of two islands: São Tomé and Príncipe, located about 140 kilometres off of the north-western coast of Gabon. Both islands are part of an extinct volcanic mountain range. / I really enjoyed working there…. It is probably one of my favourite in Africa. It has a wonderful Brazilian touch…. And it is pretty untouched….. if you are lucky to get there one day, please leave the way it was…. / I am really sad to see how in too many countries tourism has destroyed the village, the people and more…. / It is also one of the some African countries were people really value their place and would not fly away to the “American dream” or “European Eldorado”. All proceeds from sales of pictures will go to the child art education project of Art in All of Us (WWW.ARTINALLOFUS.ORG)

Pride exemplified via Mramba, the male African lion at the Virginia Zoo. The future of African predators is in peril. It is estimated that only 10,000-15,000 free-roaming African lions remain, down from 50,000 a decade ago. African lions are now listed as Endangered (West African subspecies) and Vulnerable (East and Southern African subspecies) by the World Conservation Union and are on Appendix II of the CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species) list. African lions are in danger of disappearing altogether due to disease (FIV, bovine tuberculosis, canine distemper) and habitat encroachment. Today’s modern world subjects lions and other wildlife to many dangers. Mankind constantly seizes more and more of the remaining wild areas of Africa, forcing lions onto smaller and smaller parcels of land. Large-scale developments destroy the lion’s natural habitat. In areas inhabited by livestock, lions are frequently shot, snared or poisoned. And sadly, the hunting of these amazing animals for “sport,” for man’s pleasure, is still encouraged as a revenue producing industry by many African governments. African predators simply will not survive unless they are protected. 100% of proceeds from any sales of this image will be donated to the Virginia Zoo
