    A follow up to yesterdays post with this fun image of a Samango Monkey appearing to greet the photographer. Enjoyed watching and photographing the troop as they foraged in the tree tops.
    Cropped from horizontal and removed some interfering leaves. No PS artistry.

    Again, you nailed the eyes and the eye contact. I really like the "personality" that shows through on these photos.

    Absolutely classic Pieter. The foliage certainly played game for you both to get a clear view of each other. Love the "Hi"

    Gotta like this. As mentioned, the look and the hand wave pose are brilliant. what makes this for me is the way the vegetation frames the subject. wonderful.
