Monkey See

“The surest way to make a monkey of a man is to quote him.”
Robert Benchley 1889-1945

And this is the reincarnated Robert Benchley who now roams freely on an island in Thailand. I admire Mr. Benchley's beautiful eyes.

    Ha,ha,ha...very clever Don! This is an absolutely beautiful photograph. I just watched a documentary about monkeys yesterday. Imagine living in a place where monkeys are native! I know they can be mischievous, but they are quite charming.

    Love everything about this photo, Don. The colors are beautiful, the DOF and exposure are perfect. The composition is priceless. I especially like the diagonal log and the focus on his eyes.
