Primates
Nonhuman primates are my passion. My photographic and scientific experience for the past 42 years ranges from wild apes (siamang, gibbons, orangutans, gorillas) to lemurs, and monkey species (macaques, spider, squirrel, wooley, capuchin, howler, saki, titi, tamarin, vervet, baboon, marmoset, blue, L’Hoest’s, red-tailed (guneon) and black and white colobus).
