THE CONGO

 Long on my list: photographing the gorillas of the Congo.  I read Daniel Quinn's very moving novel: Instinct which was made into a stirring movie starring Anthony Hopkins as an anthropologist studying mountain gorillas in the Congo.

My wife Patricia had a Design student a few years ago that one day will be a renowned travel photographer:  Elissa Title.  She recently took a gorilla trek.

Instinct (1999) is an American psychological thriller worth watching and starring Cuba Gooding, and Donald Sutherland with Anthony Hopkins. This film was loosely based on Daniel Quinn's novel Ishmael (also worth a read).
