Soaking up the sunlight on a bright winter day and sitting on top of St Giles' Hill looking south over the Hampshire Downs.
I have a few heroes. Frans de Waal and Frans Lanting are two of them. Frans Lanting is one of the best nature photographers, who won many awards, and Frans de Waal is one of the leading primatologists in the world, who's books I can recommend to everybody who wants to know something about our closest relatives, the Bonobo and the Chimpansee. As a young biology student I attended a college given by de Waal, before he went to America to become a professor.
De Waal and Lanting made a wonderful book about the Bonobo (Bonobo, the forgotten ape), the most elegant great ape IMO, and the pictures there were very inspirational. So when Ouwehand Zoo started a Bonobo group, I went and tried to make a few nice shots of which this is one.
Although I am not completely happy with the whole series (and I probably have to go back) I like this portrait of a young Bonobo who more or less is in deep thought.
One of many images I captured of this patient Great Blue. He stood calmly while 4 or 5 photographers snapped his portrait.

Explore Sept 27, 2009 Anna's Hummingbird. View Large On Black (Purple flowers are Hostas. The Anna's Hummingbird is a fairly common, mainly resident species, with its normal range extending from extreme southwestern British Columbia to northwestern Mexico. Tends to wander eastward less than Selasphorus hummers, but has been recorded in many central and eastern states. Mine over winter here in my backyard. I just have to change the water when it freezes. IMG_8792
