ANother cute shot of this baby orangutan. Is he falling down or already down. Nice capture. The green background looks nicely with his coloring.

Comment from Sange
Excellent timing/stop action capturing him just seconds before he hits the grass. It happens so fast and you were quick on the shutter. Great focus, action, expressive look, fine exposure and true Natural colors.
Nice work Fred :)

hahahaha, another good one Fred!

It looks as if he just fell backwards and has not landed yet like in that commercial :)

Nicely done with great clarity and perfect colors. Well done!!

Oh I am just in love w/ this little guy sg!!! You could post him daily for a week and I would not tire of this darling little Orangutan.

Wonderful crisp focus....he is just perfectly detailed....and your timing is impeccable catching him just as he's about to hit the ground. Lovely natural color throughout. It's well exposed and you've done up one of your always perfectly perceptive titles...lol Love it.

Very nicely put together here sg.

Deborah

Comment from cleo85
Of curse its funny. That series seems to be getting a whole book. Would be really need for small children sins the photos do not need explaining. He seems a bit hyperactive seems I guess. He seems sill moving even while resting.
Again it is a fine focused photo with lots of clear detail and natural color. I would have framed tighter in a square, but of curse the framing is always a personal decision.

I thought so. Its how the shadow casts which told me about the 10 sec. :o)

Comment from michiganmike
Another fine shot of this very photogenic subject. I think his long flowing hair makes it seem he is moving even when he is not. A great shot with excellent detail and great cropping.
