Sumatran Beauty

Hi all...took this a while ago at the Toronto Zoo. These are magnificent animals. Sadly,

there are less than 200 left in the wild. Comments and rating are much appreciated.

Thanks for your time. Regards, Lawrence

RP, very nice piece indeed. From the striking color to the dominate pose, you captured a great portrait.

Looks like he is hungry for you.....

Thank you, Tony. Trust me buddy...nobody wants to be exposed to this great and powerful animal.

Beautiful artistic rendering lends an already beautiful animal even more majesty. Great shot Lawrence.

Best Regards, Holger

Thanks for those very kind words, Holger

I am grateful that zoos, wild animal preserves, etc. exist to ensure that people will continue to be able to admire this magnificent beast.  I am equally grateful that you were around at the facility in your area to photograph it.  A bit of a quandary exists for me.  I don't know whether I'm more impressed by the colors or by the sharp detail.

My best,

michael
