Camera Club to view photo safari

FALLBROOK – The community is invited to join the Fallbrook Camera Club, 7 p.m., Monday, July 16, as one its members, Patrick Christman, presents a program on a recent extended photo safari he took in Africa. He will be presenting a comprehensive program on his three-week trip.

“Africa: “Wet” place, right time!” Christman said to describe his trip across some of southern Africa’s most noted conservation areas and national parks: Selenkay Conservancy near the Amboseli National Park of Kenya, Ol Pejeta conservancy in Kenya, Ol Kinyei Conservancy in the Masai Mara National Reserve of Kenya, Serengeti of Kenya and Tanzania, Manyara region of Tanzania, Ngorongoro Conservation Area in Tanzania and Tarangire National Park in Tanzania.

The photographer set out to capture the essence of Africa’s wildlife through daily rains, swollen rivers, dangerous fords, washed out safari camps, roads and off-road goat trails. Viewer can let the images of lions, leopards, cheetahs, elephants, hippos, Cape buffalo and a veritable Noah’s ark of smaller species speak for themselves.

The Fallbrook Camera Club meets two Monday nights per month at the Silvergate Retirement Residence, 420 Elbrook, in Fallbrook. Guests are always welcome.
