•  Support How close were you to her, and how did she react to being photographed? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 02:03, 2 June 2021 (UTC)

• About 5m for this shot. The gorillas completely ignore humans. When the guide tells us that the one hour permitted for viewing is up, the gorilla group gets up and moves off. This happened in both Uganda and Rwanda. Totally worth saving up for. Charlesjsharp (talk) 09:58, 2 June 2021 (UTC)

"the gorilla group gets up and moves off" Correction: the gorilla group checks its phones, gets up and moves off. Daniel Case (talk) 03:28, 5 June 2021 (UTC)

• No Daniel, as you can see from her expession, the phone battery was dead. Charlesjsharp (talk) 20:39, 5 June 2021 (UTC)

+1. It actually reminds me a lot of the look I would often get from my Grandmother. :-) --Cart (talk) 09:33, 5 June 2021 (UTC)

• JukoFF, Charles is hardly the most "diplomatic" guy on the FPC, but stooping to this sandbox level of getting even is not ok. Instead of this you could simply ask what he meant by that rather silly and not so enlightening comment on your nomination. I feel like putting you both on the naughty step! Behave, both of you. --Cart (talk) 19:45, 5 June 2021 (UTC)

• My experience in life, it shows. That this tactic works very well:) You see, the situation is actually a mirror image.) JukoFF (talk) 20:00, 5 June 2021 (UTC)

• I think you should follow the advice you have on your user page. That is a better tactic. --Cart (talk) 20:20, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
