Ahhh...Sleeping Shango in the shade. He was a sweet boy like his brother Barney.
Great Captured pose, fine white balance control on his gorgeous black/silver fur and razor sharp focus.
It was a Great day at the Cage Free Zoo;)

This lovely giant looks so relaxed and content sleeping on the grass, and you have pictured him so well. I especially like the fine textures you have brought out in the fur, and how lovely the light is falling on him.

Your photo is also nice and sharp showing such clear and well defined details in every part of the animal, and the exposure is perfect.

The format you have cropped the photo into works well, and the gorilla is well placed within the frame. I do however see that some cloning has been done on the left, and I think this is too visible. Still an all together truly lovely and well taken photo Eileen.

This is probably how I look when asleep. I like how he is holding his right foot with his right hand. I wonder if I do that? Nice sharp focus and color rendering. Good job of cropping. Well done Eileen ~ Steve

He looks cozy but I wonder how that can be comfortable! I like how you filled the frame. Your exposure is very nice and the natural colors look good.
