feep in thought and deep in sadness – lovely, speaking eyes.

Yes. There was a memorial near his enclosure. It was to a female chimp. Never found out if it was his mate or not, or whether it was recent. There is definately sadness in his eyes.

Excellent capture. I like the contrast in the colours, the green background works well here, but what really stands out is the detail in whiskers. Super sharp !!!

This is an outstanding animal portrait which also captures the animal’s innermost thoughts, he seems slightly sad – well done!

I love the gentle smile on her face, as if she’s quietly amused by the silly humans stopping to gawk at her… But there’s also a tangible sadness, as well… Beautifully captured.
