c.     What is his hope by taking these types of photos? Hoping that people will look at his photo's, and encourage them to help out the animal's in africa.

d.

“African wildlife has never looked so regal and mysterious as in Brandt’s grave photographs. His elephants appear as weighty as the pyramids. His rhinos look more ancient than carbon. His apes know something we don’t. Given the multitude of human disasters in Africa, is it an indulgence to lose yourself in pictures that carry no hint of the wars and famines outside the frame? Not when the pictures are such powerful reminders that Africa is also a magnificent—and endangered—treasure house of animal life.”

4. Find one of his photos that you really like and post it on your blog.
