African Safari
- The Best of Africa |
This presentation includes
many striking and intimate images of Africa, including photos of
birds and mammals with young, catching prey, and interacting in
fascinating ways. Ty will bring viewers along on an African safari.
You will learn about African wildlife, and hear some incredible
first-hand stories. Charismatic animals, include Lion, Leopard,
Cape Buffalo, Hippo, African Wild Cat, and the rare and elusive
Wild Dog. The African birds are fantastic and very viewable, and
many images were captured by photographing from boats plying the
Chobe River and along the winding channels of Botswana's famed Okavango
Delta. We'll also visit Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zambia. If
you’ve ever wondered what an African Safari is like, come
loaded with your questions for an experienced African traveler who
has led 8 safari’s to the dark continent. |

Mongolia - Land
of the Nomads |
Sandwiched between Russia,
China, and Kazakhstan, is Mongolia - a beautiful country noted for
its nomadic people. These nomads, who are superb horsemen, celebrate
a time-honored tradtion of launching trained Golden Eagles from
horseback, to hunt fox and hare. Join nature photographer and world
traveler Ty Smedes as he narrates a slide presentation exploring
the northern Mongolia countryside, while experiencing the rich culture
in the north of the country. We'll also journey to the south, to
explore the Flaming Cliffs, along with the renowned Gobi Desert,
where seemingly endless sand dunes and the Bactrian Camel herders
reign. |
