Got a few photos published

They accompanied an article about a gibbon at the Memphis Zoo that, after losing her lifelong mate in 2002 and becoming somewhat depressed and despondent, was moved to an inclosure with 3 orangutans. Debbie, the gibbon, bonded with Chickie, a female orangutan and have been best friends ever since. I got a call from the Publisher asking if I would be interested in taking a few shots for the article, and luckily I picked the one afternoon out of the week before press time when the sun and the sky were cooperative!
Here's a link to the magazine, and the story is in this months (February) edition on pages 42-45. I'm psyched!
