Great capture, Ian. Wonderful POV and pose. The focus is a bit soft, but no matter. A lovely portrait of this endangered ape. Well done and TFS. : )

Hey Ian,

Nice shot of this old boy. I thought that I might play a bit with this photo and try some newly acquired skills. I hope you don't mind.

Well done on this shot.

Good shot Ian,
Very good exposure, nicely composed, good colours and well detailed.
Very well captured, thanks for posting

Lovely portrait of the orangutan. He looks a little sad to be captive but maybe I'm projecting onto him, LOL! I think I would have cropped closer to his face to avoid the "human elements" in the photo.

TFS, Ian!

Hi Ian. Good clear photo of this very human-looking species. Excellent clarity of the hair/fur and the expression is excellent. TFS. Murray.
