The Gaze of a Mountain Gorilla

2021 | Digital Photograph

It was the experience of a life time, spending a small amount of time with Rwanda's Mountain Gorillas. The similarities between us humans and these majestic animals is striking - yes physically but more the way they look at each other and the gestures used to communicate. When I look at this photograph it is the eyes of this awesome gorilla makes the portrait so special for me, taking me back to the Volcanoes National Park.
