The guide and rest of the group missed this little beauty on our night walk but I'm pleased to say I spotted it straight away :D

Some of my other shots so far...

Amazing shots. Must have felt absolutely amazing to catch a glimpse of the orangutan. Super cool pics, hope we see some more. (Python pics would be great!! :D)

So jealous of you! Nice pictures.

10-17-12, 10:13 PM
Thanks :D

I'm shooting with a canon 7D and 60mm lens for macro shots and canon 5D mk III with 24-70mm and 70-200mm lenses, I'll also combine the 70-200mm with a 2x extender for my longest shots.

They said that we do have pythons in the area but I've not spotted them yet. Still got a few days yet though so I'll keep my eyes peeled :)

You have some very nice photo's.. I have to agree with Shaun that last one is breath taking! Do you mind if I save that last picture for a back ground on my computer?

Some excellant shots! I do agree with several other folks -- that last shot is fantastic! Taken at dawn or dusk? Don't imagine opportunites like that moment come up very often ... some sunlight and moon light at the same time.

Finally made my way back to this site! Only the other day I managed to finally e-mail off the photo's to some of the rangers who worked on the reserve at the hotel. They asked me to send them some of the pictures on the last day.

This was some of the rangers, a good bunch of people!

This Leopard cat wasn't on display but one of the rangers took me over to see him after he'd finished exercising the baby orang-utan. I felt privileged :)

We were only there for a couple of days, I'd love to go back sometime though, I regret not waking up early enough to catch some of the locals doing tai chi in the park.
