I like his pose, he is very lazy.
Very good details and POV.
The head is a bit burn but it's still ok.
IMHO, the BG is very distracting.

Excellent note, thank you!

Nice capture Pieter,
I've got the donkey kong tune in my head now!
You've captured the detail well, he looks deep in thought (probably planning his next barrel jumping adventure)
Thanks for posting

Very good picture with very good light, the exposure on its face is OK, you almost burned its fair but you managed to get good exposure. Very good composition, I think that you did too much sharpening.

Hey Pieter, we had 2 old Donkey Kong games lying around the house for years - I think I finally threw them out. My sons loved the games as children. Their first 'handheld games' ever.
Looks like monkey's perm went wrong in the Salon. Wonderful pose and expressions. Good catch. Interesting notes. TFS

Excellent shot Pieter, baboons have a very photogenic face, which you show to great effect.
Very clear image and good note too.
Thanks for sharing.

Hi Pieter, he looks deep in thought, very reflective. Nice shot with a good pose. Good work.

He looks like an old man who's just come out of the hairdressers' and is waiting for someone. Like his pose with the knee up. Great shot.

I love this photo and you know why, Pieter. But I hadbetter critique it properly....Composition could be better, should have been from the front. DOF would have been better shorter. Great sharpness in the fur detail, though.

A nice capture.
A very good pose and composition.
The light looks to be very strong but you've handled that very well.
A good informative note too.
Well done.

Pieter, A very nice shot of this baboon. I really like the side pose with the way he is sitting, and can see why you wanted that shot. I agree that the large rock behind his head is the only distraction. many times you are so intent on you subject, you don't think to much about the backround. I have looked at many shots of mine and said where did that object come from? Still a nice shot!

Hi Pieter!
Great picture, excellent quality but your story is even better! I like old games very much! I have got emulators of gameboy, nintendo, atari, c64 and zx spectrum [yes, zx was my first and most beloved computer ;-)] on my nokia n-gage mobile. Also love to play from time to time on PC with help of MAME. Mostly I like games from old Capcom CPS1 arcade system.

Well done on this capture. The focus is good and so are the details.
The rock at the head is distracting and the face is just a wee bit overexposed.
Excelent view.

Ce singe profite bien de soleil. Cette prise de vue est très expressive.
J'aime bien l'atmosphère qui se dégage de cette photo.
Son nez commence à rougir, attention au coup de soleil!

Have no criticism to add to this photo. I enjoy the composition and detail very much. A person viewing this capture must surely wonder what is going on in the mind of such a creature? Thank you.
