14th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Silverback mountain gorilla in Volcanoes National Park - Kinigi Ruhengeri Rwanda
While on a photo safari in East Africa we visited Volcanoes National Park in Rwanda. We trekked up a mountain for over two hours to an elevation over 9000 feet. There we met a troop of gorillas. We came as close as 10 feet from them. This silverback posed as though he was thinking of something.
