In the untamed wilderness of Brunei, I embarked on a thrilling adventure, initially aimed at observing the mesmerizing world of monkeys. However, as fate would have it, I was in for an unexpected encounter with one of the jungle's most fearsome inhabitants—the alligator. While on a monkey-watching tour, I caught sight of this formidable reptile, resting ominously on the distant shore. Determined to capture this powerful predator in its element, I approached it cautiously by boat, inching closer until I was able to seize this awe-inspiring photograph.
