Nice portrait of a ring tail lemur. Some times I find it difficult to keep their eyes and nose in focus, you have done a good job of that and a nice BG. Thanks for sharing.

Lovely portrait. I like the colors a lot, also the eyes of course.

Excellent ZOO shot Geoffrey. Technically this is picture perfect. The composition also is fantastic. The only very small thing that detracts a little from my appreciation of this is the fact that the apple is clearly sliced with a knife.
