Description
Native to Central Africa, Western Lowland Gorillas (Gorilla gorilla gorilla) are the most numerous of all gorilla subspecies, though they are still critically endangered due to loss of habitat, disease and encroachment by humans. This male was photographed at Chicago’s Lincoln Park Zoo. Textures and various digital processing techniques were applied to the image to achieve an enhanced artistic look.

A great deal of profound majesty and nobility comes through this portrait. If he could put in words I suspect this gorilla would say thank you for doing him so much justice.
