Everyone captures something others cannot, luck, opportunity, most of these stunning moments will be captured by phones, due to the sheer number out there. Do not kid yourself about public perception. 90% of the public thinks our work is just lucky snapshots due to their lack of knowledge. When I do shows I hear the occasional "I could do that", or "I have a good camera too". We understand your mountain Gorilla shot and so does anyone else who appreciates Art. To the rest of the world, the general public, it's a Monkey pic.</blockquote>
