Very nice composition, Sky! I wonder what he must be thinking, I find these creatures as very pensive in ways beyond what most other animals are capable of. Cheers! :)

Wonderful capture of this intelligent-looking ape! He looks like he's slightly smiling to himself.

Excellent, Sky!! I almost put some gorilla shots in the Exhibition gallery. They are such amazing animals. I could watch them all day. Beautiful image.

Wonderful portrait of a gorilla. Everytime I see a gorilla shot, immediately my mind drew to www.andyrouse.co.uk. His is really one awesome wildlife photographer especially gorilla. He even organize safari to those who want to shoot wildlife.

What a wonderful capture, Sky! Looks very contemplative, with a bit of a sense of humor mixed in. Helen

I love this shot Sky! He's even resting his head on his paw assuming the position. Gorillas are such fascinating creatures, exuding such power, but in those eyes a thoughtful intelligence is undeniable. Lora
