Comment by BobsterLobster:
Great capture, the eyes are extremely expressive here. The composition/crop seems a bit of an afterthought though, the eyes look oversharpened and the dof is too shallow. The white background element on the left of the frame should have been cloned out, it's quite distracting. The overall gamma seems very high, the photo looks a bit washed out. I'd lower the gamma and increase the contrast. 6

The expression is wonderful and the the close up makes this work.

Looks like a really sad gorilla here, as you've said in your title, I wish I knew what it was thinking.

Good choice of B&W, just below it's ear seems a little hot though. 8

Very nice. You dont really get the eyes in this shot. I wonder what an even closer crop that showed only the facial features would look like. I see a very nice picture of a gorilla, but without the eye expression I don't really wander what he is thinking. 8.

I love the shot! His face is so full of thought and the viewer does wonder what he
would be thinking. I must say, he appears somewhat sad.

Real nice autumn colors...maybe bit tight cropping.

To be honest I can't see any reason why you made this picture B&W. It carries no feeling. I would take the contrast to the edge if it had to be b&w. Still I love the sadness on it's face.
I love the shot in general but not the b&w approach
