Just a little nap...
A small troop of Rhesus monkeys frequent a lookout point and water hole a short distance into one of India's Tiger reserves. For this little chap the days events were all too much.

Just a small filling, a quick clean and make an appointment for six months time. That's a really nice intimate portrait Steve. I like the diagonals and the huge amount of detail. You must have arms like Garth to handhold that thing at 1/200. :wink:

I wish Eric, it was a rapid fire, hoping to catch the moment, then a quiet rest. :wink:

A very 'crisp' image, the fur detail is lovely.

Good details in this one Steve, especially considering the focal length, speed & no tripod! Looks like he's ready for a siesta. :biggrin:
