Description

Nikon D810, 1/40 sec @ f/5.6, ISO 2000, Nikkor 80-400mm f/4.5-5.6 VR, @ 80mm.
This is Katy, a striking long-haired 5-foot-tall female whom many describe as one of the most beautiful orangutans they have ever seen. We were up close and personal, albeit through a glass, and communicating with her was a thrilling experience!

The eyes and face almost have a human quality. I feel guilty as if the intent of the stare is a guilt trip. Great job. #11171847

The eye contact is just amazing, Rona - you feel as tho you are looking deep into her soul...and finding only beauty, sweetness but first and foremost, a deep and willing kinship with us. Very moving and powerful. Congratulations on an exquisite capture of this beautiful lady! #11173219
