grooming party

All hands on Negra

July 11, 2009 by Diana

Negra was the recipient of some post-lunch groomin’ in the sun today. J.B. took a couple of photos. I like the second one so much, I decided to focus in and “artistify” it.

    Diana, your “artistifying” is quiet awesome! The detail on the hands and fingers is amazing! There’s lots of feeling coming thru all the touching. WOW!!!

    What a beautiful photo! There’s so much power in those hands, yet they are so delicate when grooming. A great showing of bonding!

    I agree with Fran I’ve always thought their hands were dainty and beautiful. You all have grown so much in your video and photography I think your photo library is wonderful. I think they would all make a great book one day.

    Absolutely breathtaking shot, Diana! I have always loved a chimps hands and feet. This shot would make an awesome painting!

    Just the closeup itself, enlarged and framed would make an awesome conversation piece if hung. Looking at those hands is very powerful – they are so much like our hands.
