A Siamang Gibbon sits atop a structure in its habitat at the Cincinnati Zoo
My boyfriend and I visited Cincinnatti in October 2019. While we were walking around the Gibbon Islands habitats, I noticed this Siamang Gibbon seemed very calm and relaxed perched atop this structure. The second thing I noticed was the contrasting leaves and sky in the background. I knew the right shot would be beautiful, so I watched the Siamang for a few minutes, waiting to see what it would do. It continued to sit there so I snapped a few photos, moving around to get the angle I wanted.
