[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The Barbary Macaque (Macaca sylvanus) is a tail-less macaque. Found in the Atlas Mountains of Algeria and Morocco with a small, possibly introduced, population in Gibraltar, the Barbary Macaque is one of the best-known Old World monkey species. Besides humans, they are the only primates that live freely in Europe. Although the species is commonly referred to as the "Barbary Ape", the Barbary Macaque is a true monkey, not an ape. Confusion as to the name could have arisen from the fact that apes are tailless, as is the Barbary Macaque.

Hi Dean,
I find your gallery has some very beautiful captures...ones that deserve much more attention that they have already recieved...look at this photo,...this is special in terms of its content, colours, sharpness and presentation.The family time is captured with essence of family togetherness kept intact in every way.I like particularly the details on the baby....the colours here in the shot are amazing and with excellent contrasts.Very well done...into my favourites..:)

TFS & Cheers
