Jozani's an incredible place, bet you got loads of red colobus photos! I like the pose, composition and eye contact here. I think the image would be improved by correcting (to my eyes at least) the green colour cast and by applying more sharpening as the image is quite soft.
Agree with Adam here, great eye contact but there is just a hint of green cast there & a little mroe sharpening wouldn't go a miss. Other than that, really nice image, well done !
Green cast, surely the monkey is within the tree canopy and the light is coming thro’ leaves, aren’t they green ?? so the “green cast” is as was, and is thus natural.
Needs to be a tad sharper and I would, if I had noticed it, have framed my shot in order to exclude that branch in the B.G.
Still a very pleasing image and I’m sure you have others, will keep an eye out for them.

Ray has a good point about the green "cast" being natural when the sunlight has been filtered through the leaves...I almost made the same comment as an addendum to my first reply.
