PHOTOS: Africa Pictures at John Wayne Airport

Artist Irene Engard shares photos from her trips to Africa.

A selection of photographs Irene Engard, a local Orange County artist, are currently on exhibit through Oct. 4.

Located at the Thomas F. Riley Terminal as part of John Wayne Airport's Community Focus Space Program, Engard's photographs can be seen on the Departure/Upper Level near the security screening areas in Terminals A, B and C and on the Arrival /Lower Level adjacent to Baggage Carousels 1 and 4.

Most of Engard's photographs feature scenes from Africa she snapped during trips to various regions. All of Engard's images are in their native form, with no computer manipulation.

"My mission is to share with you the wonders of nature and take you places you might not go," Engard said. "My vision is that I will influence you to take better care of our planet by exposing you to its greatness, beauty and diversity."
