I think you solved a mystery for me. I have a photo of an animal I couldn't identify and after seeing this, I think he's a "gibbon!" Now I can post it! Great shot!

HELLO. Fun shot . Does appear to be very intently checking out the scene.
Good story telling ability and great use of natural light.

Lovely capture, such an interesting looking gibbon, those eyes so piercing, just sneaking a peek. Love the earthy soft colour tones, good use of light. Maybe a little cropping on the left would have brought the eye directly to the gibbon but still a very nice shot.

Comment from suzfaust
He really does look like he is looking at me! I like all of the different colors in this one and that he is off to the side and not in the center of the picture.

A cute and wonderful image with the ape looking on through the branches! Colors and lighting is well done with the framing being perfect for the composition!! You seem to have lost a bit on the focus, may I suggest aiming for the eyes to get the strong focus and not the branches in the front!Otherwise a moving photo!!

Comment from CammyCards
Very nice harmonious photo. Focus good. Generally very nice coloring and disposition. How could he be cold with that fur coat?
