Down By the River

The river in question is the Nile, taken from our "breakfast" boat in Uganda.
You rarely find lack & White Colobus in the clear, so I was quite pleased to see this one enjoying an early morning leaf.

Nicely framed, Ken.  Is the green in the white of his hair just a reflection of the surrounding foliage?  If so, you might want to select just for the white hair and de-saturate.
