A great shot to study, especially with that intense look on your subject's face. Even the texture and detail of the wood is crisp. The monkey must have been moving at the time the shot was taken, which is a shame because had you captured his face as well with clarity...this would have been perfect. I love how his tail is wrapped around the boy's arm, and how the boy's dark tone of his hair blends into the shadows of the overhang. That and the color of his lower dressings blend him into his atmosphere.

    I realize that not seeing monkey's head is a weakness of the photo. I did not wait I guess. Thanks for the comment.

You managed to stumble across a really great image. My only comment is that it is to dark. . his head seems to fade away and all you see is his face. If you have seen any of my pictures you will know what I think of monkeys!! Really nice photograph.

Excellent Photograph. The composition is very well executed. The lighting is very dramatic. The colors are strong and beautiful. The focus is very good. Great job.

I lked the shot, the angle was good and the subject matter is interesting.
I think it may be the exposure that could be lightened a little and a little sharper focus.
