Today I did a google search of some of my images and was surprised to find out that this photo of a young orangutan swinging through the trees was a National Geographic photo of the day — all the way back in February of 2010. It’s been in my Indonesian gallery but was never posted to the blog. I always liked that this one showed a bit more of the environment of Tanjung Puting National Park in Indonesian Borneo. Nikon D700 with Nikkor 70-200mm lens (at 200mm) ISO 800, f/2.8 at 1/1250th of a second (-1/3 stop ev)
