@richard.degouveia: So you wonder who would win in a fight between a silverback and 100 men? The silverback is the leader of the family, protector and father! And while capable of immense power, his strength lies in his quiet demeanor, his watchful gaze over his family and a reassuring guttural grunt to see where everyone is. And it is this energy that dominates the moments sitting with these incredible creatures, knowing that if threatened he would give his life for his family and yet he watches on over us as if we are a part of his family too. These are my favorite silverback pics from the recent trip I led for @naturalhabitatadventures Photographed on the Sony a1 and a7Rv with the 16-35mm f2.8 and 70-200 f2.8ii #gorillas #silverback #strength #apes #rainforest
