I had the chance to spend a few weeks in Uganda last summer. I went primarily to see mountain gorillas but plenty of other fun primates to see also. Between my wife and I, we took over 12,000 images. Hard to pick just a few.

These are incredible examples of images sensitively collected and intelligently presented. You and your wife have made mankind seem redeemable. Superb! Thanks for making us look like a caring speciesπ€π
Thank you for sharing these outstanding photos! I hope there will be more!?

Masterful photography. The resolution can't be any better.
Absolutely Marvelous photos!
Wonderful set. I enjoyed each of them. I think the gorilla hand was special.
Please post more from your trip

Nothing short of sensitive, and utterly superlative, shooting πππππ

Believe me. I have many images of dense foliage trying to photo bomb my efforts.
I do like the first hand I posted, but I have a few where the hand features prominently. The dense foliage made it hard to get clean images but still worthwhile.
I do appreciate the comments. I think one of the many joys of photography is sharing those images with others. Especially wildlife, where one is only in the right place at the right time only once, and if you didn't capture that image, it would be lost forever.
