Not to say the picture is bad, just well...

Seems he used a fisheye lens, judging from the curvature of the ground,
which means he must have been very close to the orang utan, maybe even a
metre or less.

Perhaps he put the camera on the ground looking upwards and then used a
remote control to activate the shutter?
And guessing more, perhaps he put some food next to the camera, to lure
the monkey down from the tree?


You didn't read it. The sky is actually reflection in calm water (he
says).
