22nd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Serenity

Bwindi, Uganda. I was in Uganda in November of last year to photograph gorillas. The rainy season was starting, and the cloud cover was perfect for some nice gorilla photography. We were on our third gorilla trek on our way to meet the Binyindo family. When we finally got there, they were all in an open area. One of the females was sitting, almost falling asleep.
