Photography & Interpretive Show:
Republic of Congo - The Bright Heart of Africa
Allow me to share with you, through photos I have taken over the last two years from my home in Brazzaville, Republic of Congo, another perspective of a part of Africa which can't seem to shake loose its description of the continent's "dark heart" since Joseph Conrad published Heart of Darkness in 1902. My talk will also include photos and information about gorilla and forest elephant safaris in Republic of Congo and Central African Republic national parks.
