Not like your usual animal portraits, that's for sure!

This portrait of a very peculiar moment in this lemur's day is beautifully done, with a very good mix of being at the right place and the right time and the tuned technique to allow its capture. Therefore, this is not a mere lucky shot, but actually the tangible evidence of how developed is this particular photographer's craft.

It is of no use to nit pick here, because everything is accomplished in this shot, from its vision to the originality of the pose of the animal and it's inherent sense of humour. All this bring the impact to Force Ten and invites us to contemplate the circumstances that led up to the moment here presented and smile with it.

This one is for the ages!
