22nd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Frozen in space

The Hoolock Gibbon, was jumping around and playing with their friends. I was mesmerised by their acrobatics and wanted to capture their jump between 2 trees. The hoolock gibbon resides in tropical forests which is bein threatened by human habitation. In the sanctuary, a railway line is being expanded , which is threatning their natural habitat and I wonder if they will be there in the same place when I visit them after a year.
