 Thought those of you with children might appreciate this one. (Sorry about the quality of the photo -- the gorilla was far away, it was in the shade but with bright sun right above its head, and I had no tripod.)

Perfect timing can override most technical issues. This is brilliant. My boy loves it.

LOL, well how polite was he! I think this might've done alright in the impressionism challenge. I think it turned out pretty neat.

LOL, great capture and so typical of these big galoots. I'll leave the quality comments out. I feel your pain with the pics in the shade with sun from above form 300 feet. I have more than enough of my own.

This made me laugh. Amazingly, it has this 2-d feel and almost looks painted but it works for me.

lol -- too funny. I like the soft focus on this one ... the gorilla blends into the background, and it almost looks like a painting. Quality is in the eye of the beholder. ;>P
