Me Tarzan, You Jane., a photo from Ontario, Centre

Photographer's Note

Another shot from my yearly visit to the zoo.
Dark conditions, and probably the only shot of him that actually turned out!

Well Pamela , now you don´t shout anymore...good ( I´m Jocking with you ,you started writing in major caratheres, remember?)
About this photo, two honest remarks:
You insert this photo in genre: People, well i think you could choose other theme this monky is not properly a person.
Second, i think this photo is a little out of focus, and you should avoid the rope in first plan.
Go to the zoo and try to shoot again, but try also catch all the animal or try to get a good expression of the monky, in a zoo you have planty of time to look for a great shot.

The category Humorous fits the title perfectly :-)
Even in captivity animals can appear very photogenetic, and I think you have chosen a great angly and a good moment taking this shot while your subject was striking the pose. I only wish that you would have been able to come closer. I posted a WS for you to visualize what I mean. The 400 ASA film helped you out great to snap him in the shadow, however your posting also shows one of the down sides of a sensitive film. Bright parts easily become over-exposed such as the cords on the right due to either the intens sunlight or your flash...

Looking forward to next year's shot!
