Really fantastic, unique shots. Would love to hear about the process. My first thought was trail cam for some of them but the excellent IQ points more towards a remote ?

The komodos are with a remote but everything else is by hand.

The low perspective really makes these dramatic, nice use of wide angle lens

#3 is impressive in size! The last is a beauty but beware!! Very cool images

These are all excellent images.
I am surprised you can get so close to an orangutan to take those hand held shots with a wide angle lens.
