I really love the contemplative pose of this baboon especially the placement of his hands. This was taken as the last rays of sunshine fell upon the rocks were these creatures seek refuge for the night.
Nikon D3 ,600mm lens @ f4 1/250 iso 1000 . car bracket plus wimberly head.
This is very nice, I love the side lighting, and only wish for the subjects face to be better oriented to the light source. The eyes are the window to the soul.
I like seeing this type image rather than the tight shot of the baboon, has a great feel !! Agree on the eyes but like it a lot as presented. Dramatic light makes for dramatic images !!!
I like the feeling to the shot but wonder if you could put a tad of focal brightness on the Baboon just to see if there is any loss of the emotional "feel" of the picture. Might work-might not !
Good eye to isolate all the aspects of the image.
