This photographic series features portraits of several captive animals:
An alligator watching silently among aquatic plants.
A dolphin radiating pure bliss.
A rhino staring proudlly at the camera.
A 64-year-old hippo basking in serenity.
A 56-year-old orangutan seeking solitude from curious onlookers.
These images are invitations to look and ponder. Though held in captivity, the spatial boundary may confine but do not define them. Each glance, interaction, and subtle movement reveals the unique personality of each character and tells a greater story about the natural world.
