Delilah & Daniel, 6th October 1971

Daniel was the first gorilla born and raised in the UK. Old Gorilla House (now demolished), Bristol.
I skived off a lectures at college for an awayday to see the baby gorilla at Bristol, when he was almost 6 months old. I took this photo with my old Kodak Brownie rollfilm camera. The negative is so underexposed that there is no shadow detail at all. But a poor photo is better than no photo and it brings back many memories, both good and bad. It's remarkable that old Delilah is still alive and well and living in Belfast.
