Yes, that photo is typical example how some animal can be made to look like much bigger than it is in reality. When people keep in mind, that gorillas are in average around 170 cm tall when standing, it´s easy to notice when something is not right in the photo. But of course, when a woman stands 5-20 meters behind a sitting gorilla, gorilla looks like to be huge. Put there an average male brown bear next to that gorilla and suddenly that "huge" gorilla looks like a child :) Reply
