This was a pityfull sight though, looking at the condition of this chimpanzee. He was almost close to rotting.
Yet relaxed and enjoying the sunshine, guess thats what life is all about, enjoying the little joys of life.
Cheers!!!!!

@ally!: Yes he was all relaxed. Thanks Alicia. :)
He does look happy...but then again, we don't really know how they feel. I understand and to some extent agree to the zoo concept but at the same time, there are so many appalling conditions that it makes you sad to see the animals.

@Celialee: I agree with you pal, Zoo at times is a pityful sight. Guess every living being has the basic right which is FREEDOM. Have a great weekend pal. :)
He def'ly looks agile and happy.. wonderful capture, Rahul!

@ColNed Pictures: Yes, guess thats what life is all about. Don't Worry Be Happy. Worrying wont solve anything in life. Cheers pal and have a great weekend.

@Jen: Thanks Jen, yep caught him all naked having the sunbath LOL!!!! 18Sx shot i guess hahaha.... ;-)
If he had opened his mouth, he will look like he is laughing his head off. But, it looks like he is lazing out in the sun. hehe. Nice cute shot.

@Ling: Thanks Ling, this weekend i might be off to Ipoh to shoot the Malaysia Miss World Competition. :) Next week have few photoshoots, come over if you are free. :)
Great capture Rahul!!! But I also concur with what Celialee said.... I rarely go to zoos any more. They have their purpose but.... And this shot really is terrific ... you've really captured a moment!!

@amy: I agree with both of you ladies, i dont personally like Zoos either, its real pityful site there at times. And it does make me sad and wonder about who is the most CRUEL animal on this planet earth ?? Any clue ?? Its an easy guess though. :(
Poor....thing....hope he/she get treatment fast... anyway back to the foto... first impression... super composition and pose by the chimpanzee! One in a million priceless moment..and u got it!

@Anthony: Thanks for wonderful comments on the picture pal, and i do hope it got the attention of the authorities, else next time i go there, i would not find him anymore. His condition was really bad, like i said - Almost Rotting.
hehe, i really don't like animal shots... i mean it's just that they're all so common while yours are a nice new angle and they all seem to maintain a degree of happiness in them which is what i like most. congrats on another great shot and the glow just makes it so much better...

@eydryan: Thanks pal, i am a happy go lucky person, and sure prefer to see smiles around me. And also i tend to be a hopeless optimist, though life aint much an optimist by nature, LOL!!!! But it goes on. Have a wonderful weekend.
haha so cool!
