Great moment that you caught, Chi Liu. Wonderful expression. Some parts of him are a tad overexposed, but sharp details and great POV. Well done and TFS. : )

Wonderfull portrait Chi, a well captured moment and the framing against the background really makes him stand out. Love the expression on his face!

Well caught moment Chi Liu. And the quality of the pic is excellent. I also like the way framed it to focus the attention on your baboon's expression.

He looks cool! Well, my job is music. I'm a musician; could you talk him into my band?

Very spontaneous and technicaly well done picture.

Regards, Petru

Hi Chi,
Perfect timing to get this pose. Great facial expression. The composition and framing look perfect to me. Very sharp with great DOF and clarity.

Perfect timing. Cool pose. I like them as long as I can't hear them or see their teeth.

Hi Chi, interesting shot. The pose is terrific and the details are terrific. Perhaps a little OE but not too bad. Well done.

Personal assessment of the photo: excellent.
Capacity of evocation in me: very strong. That points out time to me when I was in a choral society.
Very strong visual impact.
Personal assessment of the note: complete.
Thank you very much Liu.
