This exhibit displays the social and environmental outlook of Caribbean Conservation Photographer, Eladio Fernández, on the Republic of Haiti. The 14 images displayed provide a small window into Haitian culture, it’s urban landscape, and threatened biodiversity. The photographs also offer rarely seen views of the Pic Macaya National Park, a biodiversity hotspot which contain some of the rarest and most threatened species of orchids and amphibians on the planet. Other important biodiversity hotspots such as Massif La Selle and the Presqu’ile of Mole San Nicolas are equally portrayed in this exhibit.
