    Wow what a great photo perk for her brother!
    Cute pic for sure - made me smile. Very funny and sharp facial gesture. The light hits the eyes well. I also like the framing.
    as for critique - I'd likely burn in all around the top perimeter of the tree trunk - I'd also bring down the tail a wee bit. This allows more attention to go straight to the babooner's face.

    Thanks for the critique, Marko. I appreciate it! These little guys were hilarious as they ran around their enclosure.

    Just so cute, and you have captured the playful character so well here.
    Reality is a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there!

    So human. Well ... maybe without the tail and hair anyhow. Lucky you to have the opportunity. What has caused the strong yellow cast? Reflection/diffusion off or through something nearby I'm guessing?
