Chimpanzee, Kibale National Park, Uganda
When I went trecking for chimpanzees in Uganda, getting good photos proved more difficult than I had thought. More often than not, the chimps were high in the canopy of very large trees, with a bright white sky as a backdrop. That being said, I was able to get a few decent shots. I kind of liked the way that in this particular shot, the fig eating chimpanzee is emerging out of that field of black that dissects the composition.
