A magical capture…brilliant work Robert!!!

this is magical – the macaque in the water almost looks like an elf!

This is simply an awesome capture- just perfect

Well, I think it’s all been said, but I still wanted to add my comment to the pile. This is truly amazing. All I could say when it came up on the screen was “Wow.” Really perfect, beautiful, stunning, fantastic photograph.

So beautiful, so sweet, so tender!

Robert, on my next order I will purchase this one forsure :)

Wow, this is so amazing. What a wonderful capture. What an amazing shot.

Brilliant shot – just love it!!

thumbs up from me also – its a gem

what a moment!!!

You’ve caught a beautiful moment here – lovely focus and exposure!

One of the best shots ive seen. Everything about it is perfect. Hats off to ya Rob!

i’ve looked at this for the past 15 min.. called my house mates to have a look… even send the link to your page to family, friends and neighbors.. you really made my day with this one.

This is outstanding and the monkey in the water gives me the creeps but at the same time it is brilliant and draws you in. It reminds me of split personalities such as Gollum in “Lord of the Rings” where he keeps looking at his reflection in the water. Fantastic and very well done – this is a favourite!

Terrific shot ….

makes a nice break from the Jungle Gym!

super shot

Fantastic!!!

Priceless:))

absolutely wonderful !

fantastic photo, unbelievable, bravo

Julie told me about this one, fantastic shot!

This is an amazing shot. The monkey in the water looks a little spooky.. like a hairy human.,,,,but it’s one of those ‘decisive moment’ captures. I hope you have entered this is in a wildlife competition somewhere.

Breathtaking capture. Simply amazing to see how human like they really are. You wash my back I’ll wash your’s kind of thing. Excellant work!

Very very emotive, fantastic capture!

This is one of the best photos I’ve ever seen. Besides the obvious love, every part looks spectacular.

WOW OH WOW Stunning,beautiful,gorgeous image, magnificent.

Simply divine, the relaxed pose on the one in the water and the tension caught in the others body – just so human. Smiling still.

The great thing about this one is that not only is the story you’re telling compelling and packed with emotion and interest, but the photographic quality of this image (perfect composition, the steam, the muted colours) really makes it a faultless and timeless masterpiece. Well done!

What Julie said!!

AWESOME

fantastic capture!

Oh, I really like this.

Robert, how on earth did I miss this one? It would take me way too long to tell you how many ways this works for me. I could write a book on it. I hope you`re entering this (or have entered it) in a wildlife competition as it`s one of the most wonderful gallery quality pictures I`ve ever seen. The qualification for National Geographic shooters is that for any given event, their shot must be the best in the world… I would challenge any of their staff to match what you`ve done here. What a beautifully amazing image!

It’s all been said already, but I agree, this is so touching, beautiful.

Touching

Oooohhhhh…... just simply perfect! You must enter this in some comp somewhere??

That is so amazing! I could truly sit and stare at this one photograph for hours.

awsome shot This is really a very cool photo!

This is brilliant Rob, another fantastic capture.

Talent, talent , talent, what a gift…. not luck… absolutely moving!

This is unbelievable! They look so human! Fantastic shot!

Just keep coming back to this, to keep up to date with its progress, comments and everything.

So tonight I thought, before I wrap up for the holiday, I would come back to have another look at my favorite shot on RB, and to check that you have entered it into In the Moment [which I am so glad to see you have already done]. It still does it for me Rob – every time I load the page, I get the prickly things on the back of the neck. This has to go on my wall in the New Year [just as soon as I pick my wallet up after Christmas] in a great big print format :D

Beautiful.

wow! what a shot…amazing.

They’re so much like humans.. awesome shot.

another fine image….looking at this i can’t help thinking….who learned from who? did we teach the monkeys, or did we get the idea from them?

Great shot!

All I can say is “WOW”!

I love this! What a priceless capture.

hear hear.. bravo Robert!

Fantastic shot – not just the animals and their environment (though that’s excellent) – but the magical interaction. Fantastic

Adorable photograph Mr. Robert.. Bravo… Big laud applause !!!

Words escape me!! Congratulations.

Another fantastic capture and one that makes me very, very jealous. We wanted to see these guys the last time that we where in the neighborhood but we were far to late. We knew this beforehand of course as we had aimed for the cherry blossoms this time. We’ll go back there in winter. Your images convinced me even though I didn’t really need convincing anymore. ;)

Wow..

Awesome work.

Well done on making it to the ‘In the Moment’ magazine Rob!

thats the best photo i’ve seen

oh my gosh, this is absolutely brilliant! stares at it in awe

congrats on this being included in “in the moment”, it deserves the honour!

Well, given how much comment you’ve had on this pic, you hardly need me to tell you that it’s an outstanding shot! But just to add my congratulations on being included in In The Moment

Oh my gosh. I had absolutely no idea that these little critters do this. And what a great capture. You must have had to wait for ages.

Gorgeous photo. You are so lucky to have seen that, let alone taken a photo of it!

Congrats Rob, a well deserved achievement with this superb shot.

Congratulations! This is a fabulous shot. Definitely another one of my favorites.

Not sure what more can be said for this. Stunnig.

There’s so much to this photo.. but I think the main drawcard is we as humans can relate to them. They’re so similar to us.

What an amazing image you’ve captured here….....simply stunning!!

Wow – that pic puts a smile on my face. Beautiful!

Fantastic capture this is just perfect well done

Beautiful!

Super Fav!

This is one of the very best shots I have seen on the Bubble in the past 10 months since I jumped aboard… what more can I say than what has already been said… after all, I did spot it and comment not long after it was uploaded… I have not been at all surprised at the sheer number of comments and accolades you have received Robert and well and truely deserved!!!

It is a stunner and you deserve every bit of what has been said about this wonderful shot…

Hope you don’t mind, but here is an example of it with a black surround that I think puts a very small bit of icing on a wonderfully LARGE and DELICIOUS cake!!!

Smokin Robert, that’s incredible!

great shot looks like some people i no

Hello again Robert… I have had it on the buy list as a card since the day I saw it… would love to have it as a large framed image, but unfortunately don’t have enough spare dollars to go round yet… I might add it to a callendar to buy for 2008 alonf with some other great works from fellow bubblers. Once the card numbers reach the level where they ship them for free, I will buy it!... 15 there and only 35 to go!!!

I have added a journal entry of my own to hopefully steer a few more to look at your shot again and again… or for the very first time!!!... and buy it too!!!

Regards,

Craig

As a matter of curiosity, how many comments and visitshave you had on this wor???... it must be amongst the highest numbers on the “bubble“

Amazing!!!! Never seen anything so wonderful!

It’s absolutely stunning!

How totally adorable. A beautiful photo. I hope they took it in turns!

If you haven’t already, maybe think about entering this incredible photo into the gaia comp.

Wow doesn’t express enough what one feels reading this image! The timing and moment is once in a lifetime, congrats on a masterpiece. Lolve the strong sharp edged rocks framing the subjects and the dof and fog in the background WOW B r i l l i a n t !

This is just amazing. A terrific capture of animals exhibiting what we consider “human” characteristics.

Fantastic capture,love it

This is the perfect shot!!!!

Hi Anibal…they tend to sit around on the rocks besides the thermal pool which are toasty warm and dry off that way…yes it gets cold..thanks for the comment…cheers, Rob.

G’day Robert,

Yes, this certainly IS one-great-shot material.
There is something just so human about this scene that seems to tug at the heart strings.
Very well composed, a lovely exposure in the misty light, nice subdued contrast, a fine sharp focus and lovely natural colour.
Technically well done, aesthetically most pleasing and with a great “X” factor!
