[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I love Africa. It's diversity, the people and the stunning nature. I was lucky to see the Gorillas where Dian Fossey made her studies and battled with the poachers, in Parc National des Volcans in Rwanda. Gorillas in the mist..... I didn't trek for that long before I saw the first little family with two youngsters and then just a bit further a big silverback and some females. Breath taking and a bit unreal.

Beautiful portrait. Looks as though the gorilla is daydreaming. It must be an awesome experience. I did a little workshop -- maybe you'll find it useful. Best, -Hugh (Oh, unfortunately you don't permit workshops, so I couldn't post it.)

Bonsoir,
J'aime particulièrement votre photo...avant tout pour le modèle, mais aussi pour le POV...sans oublier la note, que je trouve vraiment juste. Je me suis permis un petit workshop...en espèrant que vous pardonnerez cette incursion dans votre monde! Amicalement, Magritte
