This little guy was one of the first orangutans that I met when I was in Borneo. He was shy and clinging to mom one minute, while the next he was acting as if he wanted me to join him at play. I guess, pretty much like his human relatives. Nikon D300 with Nikkor 200-400mm lens (at 350mm) ISO 800, f/5.6 at 1/500th of a second
Sean- I usually am very suspicious of cute in photography, but every once in a while ‘cute’ rises above its definition and wonder takes over. Great photograph Sean (as the vast quantity of your work is.) Thank you -M

Thanks Amy.
I just love it!
Sentient beyond imagining —- Ready the world to explore and yet —– Still safe in mother’s arms.
Truly a precious moment.
