Lice Inspector (c) + REPOST
I took this shot of Barbary macaques (Macaca sylvanus) at Trentham Monkey Forest at the weekend. Its a really interesting place to observe the behaviour of these fascinating monkeys, which are held in a semi free-ranging enclosure.

Canon 1D3
300 f/4 L IS
ISO 800
1/125 at f/4.5

C&C welcome

Interesting behavioural shot. Is it me or does it look a bit blue though?

I like your website :wink:

it's a nice behavioural shot. Perhaps a slight shame that we can't see the youngster's eyes, but it still works well.

Hi Adam,

Agree it does have a blue tinge. Also could do with a little more USM as looks a little soft.

A nice bit of behaviour to capture though.

Thanks for sharing

Regards

Rob

Thanks for your comments - agree about the sharpness and colour. Amazing how you can miss these things to begin with! Here's a repost...
