Ger, this is a lovely portrait of a pensive primate. The tonal variation is well handled and you have achieved excellent sharpness and texture in the monkey's coat set against a soft background bokeh. It might be interesting to have captured more of his (her?) body. On the other hand, what would you think about cropping a little off the right and top to shift the subject more to the centre of the frame?   Posted: 10/11/2025 04:07:30

Thank you Lorna....my idea for the crop was to allow some space in front of the subject in the direction it is facing   Posted: 10/15/2025 11:13:47
