    A spider monkey and white ibis. Taken at Lion Country Safari, West Palm Beach, FL. Because the window police were keeping out a watchful eye out, the image had to be taken through a tinted van window! The background is water. Thanks for looking!

    1/1600s @ f/7.1, ISO 400

    I agree. No racial discrimination. Nice moment.

    Funny photo, nicely composed. On my monitor, detail is lost in the face of the monkey. Perhaps a bit of fill in the shadows could be applied? Good capture.

    I could have sworn they allowed the windows open way back in the past, but no longer. It was very hard to fight that temptation! The lions now have an additional fence enclosure- and still the windows must remain closed!

    The ibis brought the lunch, of course. It is letting the monkey try it out first to make sure it's safe to eat!
