Lazy afternoonPosted by JJ (Jersey City, United States) on 20 November 2008 in Animal & Insect. Went the the Bronx Zoo a little while ago ad this is one of my captures from there, he looked like he had a tiring day and was resting Thank you for taking the time to visit. I really appreciate all your comments, and welcome any critique as I am learning the art of photography, and having a blast with it Getting ready for a work trip from the 29th so may not be able to check all your posts but will do as and when I can

You caught the great colors in his fur. 20 Nov 2008 6:24am aubry from Montpellier, Francehi, 20 Nov 2008 7:40am Nicholas from Shah Alam, MalaysiaYour shutter speed might be a too slow and might have resulted in the pickup of a little handshake. Nice capture though :) What an interesting looking monkey. 20 Nov 2008 8:28am @Nicholas: thanks for the critique, best way to learn, appreciated Phototherapy from SwitzerlandVery nice backlight and narrow framing! 20 Nov 2008 12:24pm Lorraine from Gatineau, CanadaMixed feelings, love animals...hate zoos...love this photo, hate that it's in a zoo ;) 20 Nov 2008 12:33pm Laurie from New Jersey, United StatesCute! I felt like I could have slept sitting up yesterday. 20 Nov 2008 1:31pm Hess from Murphy, United StatesThis answers the question of, "What happens when caffine doesn't work?" and is a perfect picture of my mood today...a little sleepy. :) 20 Nov 2008 2:43pm don from spokane, United StatesYou caught the animal in a relaxed and very quite moment. I like the close up. An appealing image. 20 Nov 2008 3:28pm tyan from Singapore, Singaporehe looks like a wise old man thinking about the most important questions in life!:) 20 Nov 2008 3:29pm Wolfgang - vu@granby from Granby, Québec, CanadaThat's how I look in the early morning! 20 Nov 2008 3:41pm Calusarus from St Sorlin en Valloire, FranceYoda's son ? Nice shot. I like it a lot this animal shot. 20 Nov 2008 5:06pm Pixim from Nice, FrancePeaceful monkey shoot well in spite of a hard light difficult to manage. Bravo, I find it very clear (a very good focus) , and yet your shutter speed was low. The contrast of the moment was extremely surely, therefore still Bravo ;) 20 Nov 2008 5:58pm Maramy from Aberdeenshire, United KingdomNice capture of this wise looking old man!!( or perhaps he is not old!) Love his fur coat!! 20 Nov 2008 6:26pm dobbino from Cape Town, South AfricaJJ - love this photo. The colours of all the animals we share this planet with never fail to amaze me.

You did well to capture it! 20 Nov 2008 8:31pm Graham Russon from Cape Town, South AfricaDoes look like he's taken a nap. Nice moment, well caught. 20 Nov 2008 8:36pm Evelyne Dubos from Le Mans, FranceLooks tired indeed... but i think he fed up with doing nothing... Like his look, i agree with Calusarus he seem's to be Yoda's son... :-)) 20 Nov 2008 9:58pm Alphons from Kaatsheuvel, NetherlandsBeautiful portrait. With athmospheric wonderful light.
