I realize there are problems with this photo (motion blur, camera shake, dirty glass in the viewing area, distortion, & more), but it is so cute of the kids & mom that I wanted to share it. (It is one of my favorites.)
A few seconds before this shot, the gorilla was sitting peacefully in some straw, facing 45 deg from the kids. Then she sprung up & spun around toward the kids. The mom looks to be enjoying the whole thing, but the little girl was on the verge of tears.
I hate to report that since this photo was captured, the gorilla (50+yrs) passed. She was a treasure for the Dallas Zoo.
Shot through dirty viewing glass.

Does anyone else have a favorite to share?
