This could NOT have been an easy capture, but you've executed perfectly. Beautiful work, Gerri. #1568702

Stunning and captivating image Gerri! Your lighting is magical! What a wonderful image this would be for Mother's Day! #11015308

Thanks very much Michelle and Joannie! Michelle-it wasn't an easy capture as it was taken through glass and I had to deal with reflections of other observers also watching. I did get lucky with the position of mother as she was partially in a better lit area and the light spilling onto babies face. I had my 85mm lens placed directly at an angle on glass. Joannie-I thought this translates into a mothers love in any language-the mother gorilla was so loving/caring toward baby, it was a beautiful thing! Thanks for taking the time to comment! :) #11015735
