Description
Savanna grassland and track disappearing into infinity on the western horizon at sunset time, was a great metaphor for a challenging exploration and study of Kundelungu National Park, DRC-Congo, Katanga Province, Central Africa which I experienced in April 2012. These beautiful savannas unfortunately produced a very strong disquiet in me as well, because all the big game have disappeared due to warfare the last few years. We were in the park starting a process of analysis and mapping to help in the process of rehabilitation and restoration (in time) of the ecosystem and wildlife.

What a wonderful image. "sobi" is what we called the grass when I lived there in my youth.

Hello Robert - welcome to the African Theme Artwork group - Thanks for becoming a member and submitting your work for other members to see - it has been a long time since I was last in Africa and being in the Merchant Navy at the time I never got to see much further than the towns and cities - so when I see a photograph like this I think - Is that something in the long grass? - Thanks again - All the best - Geordie Gardiner
