Tim Laman, US Winner, wildlife photographer of the year A young male orangutan makes the 30-metre climb up the thickest root of the strangler fig high above the canopy in Gunung Palung national park, one of the few protected orangutan strongholds in Indonesian Borneo. Laman had to do three days of climbing to position several GoPro cameras that he could trigger remotely. This shot was the one he had long visualised, looking down on the orangutan within its forest home.

Awesome
I think most people take these pics for granted watching the Discovery and Nat Geo Channel all the time, without realizing what these photographers and videographers go through to get these pics and videos.
Watching the behind the scenes of Planet Earth is as amazing as watching the show itself.

I posted almost the exact same pic to instagram about a year ago. I didn't use all those filters though.

Nayan was determined to use his pictures to show how things can be different with tolerance and planning. Positioning his flashes to mimic the alley’s lighting and his camera so that a passing cat would not dominate the frame, he finally – after four months – got the shot he wanted.

If those Bigfoot Hunter dinguses ever get a shot at a Squatch theyre gonna take home the grand prize.
In all seriousness those are incredible pictures. Those leopards in India aint no joke.
