Monkey Bars

Origami Calendar

Folded a monkey from a 15×15mm piece of paper. It hangs off the fork pretty well; and even if it falls, at least it won’t go hungry :o).

Taken with an Olympus FE-340 on September 28, 2009

Originally my idea was to just have it with the fork alone as monkey bars:

Then suddenly had the urge to take it with a banana. I was debating between this shot I have up now and this one:

Feel free to advise or if you prefer one of the above. If there is a majority vote, I may switch.

For a better idea of scale:

He’s got his arm up to look taller; but I can see his head is below the 5mm mark :P

Also used the same type on monkey in Monkey Mischief
