\tBritish photographer Tim Flach is known for taking human-like photographs of animals. His latest body of work, called „More Than Human,” captures the emotions of wild creatures through intensely close shots \u2014 like the stunning picture of a gorilla on the right.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\tThe intimate animal portraits, which feature everything from a featherless chicken to a pair of affectionate chimpanzees, are meant to illuminate the similarities between animal poses, gestures, and gazes, and our own.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\tThe intimate animal portraits, which feature everything from a featherless chicken to a pair of affectionate chimpanzees, are meant to illuminate the similarities between animal poses, gestures, and gazes, and our own.<\/p>\n

\tPhotographing animals on a set, as opposed to in their natural habitat comes with a unique set of challenges. \u00a0<\/p>\n

\t„You can never predict an animal’s mood,” Flach\u00a0says on his website<\/a>. „So you have to plan beforehand to get what you want.” To make the animals feel as comfortable as possible, Flach may adjust the temperature of the studio or play music.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\tYou can purchase a hardcover copy of Flach’s animal portraits\u00a0here<\/a>\u00a0or visit\u00a0his website<\/a>\u00a0to see more of the award-winning photographer’s work. \u00a0<\/p>\n
