AFRICAN NOSTALGIA

Africa seen and described through the eyes of a wildlife photographer who has always been fascinated by the unique atmosphere of this extraordinary continent.
A tale of the sensation of breathing the air of Africa, admiring its fiery skies and observing the daily activities of its animals, frequently caught in unusual poses.
A story that shuns the spectacle of animals suffering and dying in favour of striking colours and the light, smells and landscapes unique to this continent.
A story that describes the cause of his longing for Africa, the sweetest sadness.
