Yes, another ape photograph. I call him Orc because of his ears. He's a very gentle and quiet and prefers to hang around with himself more often than not, especially when the youngun's are playing.

Nice chimp shot, but repetitive. Milking it for all it's worth, eh? I might do the same. Keep it up and people will complain of too many monkey shots ;)
Yes, this shot is just wonderful. The choice of B&W gives it more drama. He seems wise and thoughtful. Great capture indeed! Personally, I would like to see deeper contrasts but that's just personal taste. ;-) 9
I love the low key tones of this photo, as well as, the captured expression of this ape, but think it could have more impact with a lightening of the eyes and some catch light there. Still, very well done.
I like the title integration on this photo. This chimp looks old... maybe the wise man of the group... the leader. Maybe he sits quietly and oversees the antics of the younger members of the group. Excellent shot... = 10
