I finally made it over to the zoo. Double D and I had another marathon day of photography with the best luck ever! We found parking everywhere we went. 2x right in front!! Seriously we had no problems. I’m knocking on wood right now so I don’t jinx anything.
This Silver back wasn’t out when we first arrived at their den. One female went inside and soon he came out then sat on a rock and looked out at the people who were watching him. He’s a deep thinker I believe. His eyes are very compelling. There is intelligence behind that gaze.

“The Zoo has one adult male Silver-back, four females and an infant male western lowland gorilla living at the Gorilla Preserve.”

This is from Jan. this year. Taken at Twilight on marathon Photography day from the Sutro Bath Ruins. I remember wanting to take a shot of the Moon from here, but it was just too high in the sky this month. It’s something I’m keeping in my plans to do in the future.

I’m craving one of these! We have stopped to eat at this cafe in Dog Patch twice now while in the city to photograph different venues. It’s called Just for You. They are always crowded. They serve your beignet before your meal if you order a meal. They are fresh, hot, sweet, goodness, and not calorie free or small!
