in a way it was a lucky shot as the place is quite dim and still the photo came out rather sharp at 1/20 and 210mm handheldEquipment
Canon EOS 600D and Sigma 18-250Inspiration
The chimp named Mojca is one of the oldest chimps in the zoo and it looked quite concerned about who knows what. When checking pictures after the shot it somehow occurred to me it's quite possible she may be contemplating the sad state of human affairs and some bad decisions her distant relatives are making ever since they climbed down that tree...Editing
A lot, actually. The original photo even though it's sharp and with some great details was looking dull mainly because of the background and since I am mostly doing digital collage, some dark story in the backdrop supporting my first impression seemed like a right thing to do. Tweaking the final image and getting the right print actually took some years and finally earned me a special recognition at the International Fine Art Festival Kranj, Slovenia in 1217.In my camera bag
