[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
At the Auckland Zoo the Orangutans were given some props to play with. The one decided to wear a cloak.

Spot metering used so the exposure of the subject was correct as opposed to an average which would include the bright sky.

Oh, the dear fellow-ess.
I didn't realise it was your photo Carl - but I was going to say that I've seen a similar chimp at our zoo all covered up like this - and it must be the same one!!
She's looking right at you too. She makes me feel sad seeing her like this - it is a pity she's not out there in the wild...
Good shot though :)

“I sense something. A presence I've not felt since...” Darth is checking you out Carl. Aren't these guys just so adorable the way they like to have a 'security blanket'. Looks like the light was a little harsh, but you got a good shot. Plenty of 'Orangutan' attitude.

Cheers

Pam
