Douglas Steakley Photography
Africa Black and White Gallery
This collection of photographs is drawn from many trips that I have made to several countries in east Africa over the past few
years. Each trip has found a place in my heart and it is my hope that these images will reflect the feelings of awe
and grandeur that I experienced each day while I was there. The national game reserves in Africa are truly unique in that they
preserve a natural habitat for a wide diversity of wildlife that has remained intact for centuries. Taking a quiet, early morning
game drive as the sky turns a brilliant hazy red and coming across a pride of lions or a herd of elephants is an experience
that takes your breath away and will never be forgotten.
Although the reserves in Africa provide a degree of safety for the numerous animals that live there, conditions are changing
quickly and dramatically. It is quite possible that the wild animals that inhabit the open savannas and jungles will not be there
for the next generation.
