ENDANGERED: Fine Art & Photography Contest 2019 Submission

Taken in Lowary Park Zoo who is preserving orangutans who have lost most of their living area in Borneo.

Virginia is a photographer who has been living on the East End of Long Island for the past 17 years. Her pictures usually portray landscapes or nature but not exclusively. The image that comes out of the camera is only the beginning. From there she creates an image to match what her mind sees before a print is made.
