I’ve never posted this before (mainly because I find it to be just an average shot of a lemur — I should have gotten all the way onto the ground and positioned myself for a cleaner background). That said, it’s the shot that would later become the silhouetted ring-tailed lemur icon in my logo. I was scrolling through my old files and came across it and thought I’d share it now. I think it was about eight years ago when I first started using it in my logo, but it was taken back in 2007 in southern Madagascar. Nikon D200 with Nikkor 80-200mm lens (at 200mm) ISO 100, f/3.5 at 1/1250th of a second.
Thanks Angelina. The tail was why I chose the ringtail lemur. Adds some interest to a straight silhouette. 2024 good so far. Off to Guyana in a few weeks. Let’s try to get something together in NYC soon.

Awesome, Sean. I love the back drop story & have always enjoyed your chosen logo!
Thanks Sue. I don’t know if I can choose a favorite animal, but if forced, lemurs would be up there.
Do they always keep their beautiful tails up in the air like that? Or do they sometimes drag them on the ground?
When in trees, those tails are usually hanging down, but when walking on the ground, they are usually up in the air.
Very cool!!!
Thanks Bill.
That’s pretty cool, Sean. In my opinion, the tail is the best part of the lemur (and your logo). Hope you’re having a great 2024!!
