"Yeah, What Are You Looking At?"

Gotta love the oh, so human behaviour and expressions of gorillas.
Nice portrait.

There is real attitude in that look! Great shot.

For the 'get-pushed' challenge, I challenge you to make a macro with your 60D. I guess you don't have a special macro lens, but try to get the best out of your lens and camera. Try to come as close as possible, use manual focus with 10x focus zoom via LiveView and do a maximum crop. For me this always is a challenge, more than once with good results (see my insects and flowers july and august). Good luck!

@djepie ~ Jaap - I've never used the focus zoom in LiveView before, but have figured out how to use that setting and am excited to try. Thanks for pushing me to better learn my camera! What do you mean by doing a 'maximum crop'?

@kph129 I already explained in your first challenge-shot. And to be sure: you set your lens to M focus? That really makes all difference! I still am delighted to see the difference of and A and an M 'macro' of the same object.

I love this one! His expression is so human-like, and the texture on the wall behind him is beautiful. Fav!

@mah68 Oh, thanks Mere! Juliet insisted on seeing the gorillas this day, so she gets part credit.
