22nd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World

After years of waiting to finally embark on my first gorilla trek, at the top of my list was to capture the incredible and similar hands we share with gorillas. As luck would have it, some of the very first images I captured were of this mother and her infant tenderly holding hands. It remains one of my favourite images but also my favourite moments I've experienced with wildlife in the field.
