15th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Orangutan Love
Capturing this shot was amazing. They really look like they are "posing" for the picture. Watching straight into the lens, like she wanted to make a portrait of her with her beloved son. The love between the mother and her son was striking. Also note the mighty hand of the mother.
