The philosopher...

[Chris van Rooyen]

I photographed this Vervet Monkey at the Pafuri picnic spot in the Kruger National Park. I like the rim lighting effect created by the combination of fill flash and late afternoon sun. Flash exposure compensation was -1/3. I was intrigued by his contemplative expression:)
