Ever wonder what their actually thinking when they look at us looking at them? ?
Maybe thats a little to deep.

Anyway great shot I like the way his eyes are looking right at the camera.

Or is it a she????? She might have been flirting

Actually he was picking his nose before this shot. I guess it is better than playing with himself and then sticking his finger in his mouth.

The shot is great... However I'm just not a fan of monkeys in general. They tend to do some rather "nasty" things just about the time you press the shutter release

Nikon D300, D70S, 17-35 f2.8-4, 35-70 f2.8, 50 f1.4 70-200 f2.8, 150 f2.8 macro, 50-500 f4.5-6, 500 f4.5, 1.4X, 2.0X, SB-800 and still more to rummage through !!!

Those gorillas really do get some expressions that make you wonder

That's a real nice shot though Jim.

xseption, if you crop all day, he still don't look human to me.
