Christian Schwarz visited and stayed at the Cameroon Ark site in Obout Village in August 2023 as part of a group of 4 visitors who travelled from Germany. Christian has kindly released a selection of 100 photos for us to use on the website. All photos were taken using a Canon EOS 60D with various lenses and fill-in flash depending on the subject matter. An ID has been assigned to the subject matter of each photo wherever possible.
This gives you just a small snapshot of some of the biodiversity found locally in the Congo Basin Forest represented around the Obout Village area. The group that Christian was part of was focused primarily on a survey of the Mantidae (Praying Mantids) and Tettigoniidae (Katydids) of the area - all photographs were taken within that context as the group explored a mix of primary forest sites as well as secondary forest sites.
All these photos are attributed to Christian Schwarz with copyright residing with Christian. If you would like access to higher resolution files of any of these images, we are more than happy to put you in touch with Christian.
