Photographer's Note
Another posting from the Singapore Zoo.
Here we see one of the juvenile Orangutans playing with the rope/ vine attatched to the tree.
I like this shot because it clearly shows the facial expressions of the Orangutan.
I hope you like it!

Ahahah, I like the censored spot ;o) for sure it is a funny picture, Orangutans can make such a curious pull faces. Nicely catch.

Very amusing. Did he try to grab your camera as he swung towards you?

Dan, stunning shot - worthy of National Geographic. However, I detest censorship. I don't want to look at the ape's nuts - but neither would I be offended if they hadn't been blacked out! Paul.

Poor guy seems to have stretched himself a little too much...look at the strain in his expression!!! I don't know about you Dan!!! In a way I must say its time you got a real long break from that land you seem to be stuck in all winter. Lack of BC scenery perhaps. Too many numbers in your head! Your boss at work must simply drive you batty that it makes you feel driven to the wild creatures here at the zoo. When you come to BC Dan let me know and I can put you in touch with some professionals that can help you. Cheers and please hang in there Dan!

Hi Dan,
I really think this is an amazing shot of the Orangutan playing the rope. He has strong facial expressions indeed...but I hope it's not because he is so stretched out...hehe! Anyway, great capture with amazing details and great sharpness. Beautiful work, Dan!
Greetings and Happy Easter!

Hey Dan. What a funny shot this one is. I think I'm glad you censored out his private parts. I think I'd be making the same expression if my legs were split apart like that! Nice catch Dan. Happy Easter!

hey dan ... your series from the singapore zoo is awesome. i wish the zoos in korea were this good. the enclosures seem very natural and the animals seem pretty happy.
i've gotta give the 'censored' a big thumbs down. a penis is a natural thing. by censoring it we say it's not natural.
none the less ... great shot.
