[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The most photographed primate while in my last journey, long tail macaques (Macaca fascicularis) inhabit patches of Bali Island in hordes leaded by extremelly aggresive alpha males.
Despite that, many of these hords of macaques, live along touristical focus points mainly around temples, usually surounded by forest, where they get fed by visitors or monks or simply village children.
This particular image was taken at the Sangeh Monyet Outang (Sangeh Monkey Forest), a local attraction, a 13th century temple (pura) surrounded by forest and a grove of tall banians with a colonny of tons of monkeys.
Enjoy...

Cool shot of this monkey.
Nice details and monkeys face expression well combined with natural colours.
Is it wild life shot?

Wonderful expression you have captured, Radu.
He looks like he is puzzling over the the enigmas of life itself.
I like the light in this picture.
Also very sharp details and fantastic eye contact.
TFS. : )

Hi Radu,
Cute monkey! And very good picture. Very sharp, good composition. You take this monkey at a good moment. I think he don't like the little mohawk on his head! ;-)
