Posted by Frida at November 4, 2008 05:41 AMI like the title. It gives the photo another dimension.
Posted by Kimberly Way at November 4, 2008 08:59 AMGreat portrait! You really get a sense of personality in this shot.
Posted by Jay at November 4, 2008 09:02 AMBeautifully introspective image. There is a definite majestic feeling to this marvelous animal.
Posted by Chris Cardelli at November 4, 2008 02:21 PMThis is perfect! I love his smile.
Posted by Aaron at November 4, 2008 04:44 PMVery nice!...I love the composition and the expression. Very well done.
Posted by Brad Walters at November 4, 2008 06:00 PMthe first time ive seen a gorilla look cute. nice job. were you pretty close up or is it just a great zoom?
Posted by jess at November 4, 2008 11:07 PMWould be best if we guess what the gorilla was thinking inside his (her) head at that time? Like, "When will I ever achieve my freedom?"... or "If only I can get that banana"...
Posted by Arthur Nielsen at November 6, 2008 09:11 PMThe level of detail in this is fantastic, and I love the shallow depth of field. This photo, the elephant from a couple of weeks ago - your San Diego Zoo photos put the rest of us to shame.
Posted by Mark Dodge Medlin at November 12, 2008 01:53 AMInteresting, I may have a picture of the same gorilla, taken in the mid-to-late-70s. Though that would make him very old. Perhaps an offspring. I loved that zoo.
