Baby orangutan photo

This image entitled ‘The Kiss’ has been short listed for the People’s Choice award in the London Camera exchange photographer of the year. Please vote for it on the button below. It takes less than a second and you don’t have to register or anything. I took this image on one of my Borneo orangutan wildlife photography trips and love the tender affection the baby orangutan is giving its mum. The relationship between a mum and baby orangutan is one of the most special in the natural world with their offspring being dependant on their mothers for about eight years. The Kiss is also available as a limited edition print here.
