Ngamba Island Chimpanzee Sanctuary- NFT

To learn more about my collaborative NFT project with Ngamba Island Chimpanzee Sanctuary in Uganda, visit NFT.ChrisAustria.com. A portion of sales from the chimp NFTs goes towards the feeding and veterinary care of the orphaned great apes. You will also receive a signed print that you can frame and hang on the wall. This handsome chimp is “Eddie” and one of my favorite great apes here. Eddie was rescued from a circus. Ngamba Island is home to 52 chimpanzees that have been rescued from the illegal wildlife and bushmeat trade..To learn more about their work, visit NgambaIsland.org.

Fashion in Uganda

I’m excited to be photographing so many talented fashion designers here in Kampala, Uganda. This stunning dress is modelled and designed by Juan Harriet. Her dresses are so unique and she selects gorgeous fabrics.

Lioness in Karmoja, Uganda

I love lion moms. They are so caring and protective over their offspring. This gorgeous lioness killed a zebra and was waiting patiently for her cubs to come over for breakfast. She wouldn’t let them out of her site. I photographed her in Kidepo Valley, Karamoja in the northeast region of Uganda.

The Mountains In Lalibela, Ethiopia.

Trekking to the Asheton Maryam Monastery in Lalibela Ethiopia was very scenic. The Lasta mountains and craggy escarpments were spectacular to see during this journey. Lalibela is a UNESCO World Heritage sight, famous for the 12th-13th century rock-hewn Ethiopian Orthodox Christian churches.
