Continents: Africa

With this feature series I hope to shed some light on this amazing planet and the photographers who roam it one continent at a time starting with the cradle of life: Africa.

In the globalized society we all live in it is amazing how little we actually know about the rest of mother earth. You might think its not important to know the capital of Uganda or the president of South Africa but fact is that involvement in the world will not only broaden your horizons and tickle you travel desire but it will give you a sympathy for the people on the other side of life and maybe  even get you out of your chair. A great side effect is that you might realize how beautiful and diverse a planet we inhabit and how well worth a fight it is.

Travelphotography is an overlooked genre here on dA which isnt strange since its a composite of every genre imaginable with the only gathering touch being that its taken somewhere that isnt home, wich makes it hard to look up. Nevertheless it churns out some of the most inspirational, touching and beautiful images there is.
