October, 2022 Winner: Sumatran Male Orangutan

Contest Number: 194 Contest Theme: Fill the Frame Lens: Pentax 16-50 @31mm Camera: Pentax K5 IIs Shutter Speed: 1/20s Aperture: F4.5

Shot at the Singapore Zoo, through 4" plate glass at 800 ISO. I always visit the Orangutans whenever I visit Singapore & spend many hours there.
I've developed something of an affinity with this wonderful creature and I'll sit & quietly speak to him, he's intelligent & seems to listen.
He is such a beautiful animal & this is one of my all-time favorite shots.
