Here’s another from the recent gorilla trek in Mgahinga National Park in Uganda. This young mountain gorilla seemed to be having a good old time climbing trees while the three silverbacks were resting down on the ground below. Nikon D850 with Nikkor 70-200mm lens (at 170mm) ISO 800, f/4 at 1/400th of a second.

Looks like he wants to join in with the crowd
Great shot. Looks like you were above him. Have you started climbing trees now to get your shots?
It only looks that way. Optical illusion. I was on the ground looking up.
Darling!
I’m always fascinated by their gaze: direct, curious– a recognition, perhaps? Wonderful shot
