Face to Face: With the Great Apes
In 60 fascinating photo portraits, the two nature photographers, Anup Shah and Fiona Rogers, show chimpanzees, gorillas, orangutans, and bonobos in close-ups taken in the animals' natural environment. For this, the renowned and multi-award-winning wildlife photographers lived together with the apes in the jungle for a long time and built up an intimate relationship of trust. Only in this way was it possible to capture these intimate portraits of the wild animals.
