Friendly Orangutan

Smithsonian National Zoological Park

I've been hoping to photograph an Orangutan for many months and finally had the chance.
I told him how happy I was to finally meet him and how beautiful he looked.
He must have liked that because he came toward me across the yard and
climbed down into the tall grasses to let me take several photos.

Canon EOS 350D ,Canon EF 135mm f/2L USM
1/200s f/2.0 at 135.0mm iso200 full exif
