Oh My Goodness – this is super super – I am so excited about this image Robert, its just awesome. I have seen some pretty brilliant images of these primates, but non as powerful as this. This is just awesome. Do you mind if I link back to this shot?

Julie Langford, 8 months ago

I think I should suggest to RB that we are allowed to fav things more than once – I could just sit here all night looking at this [must save the pennies for this one]

Dakolina, 8 months ago

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.

Lesley Smither..., 8 months ago

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!

brummieboy, 8 months ago

Terrific shot ….

Sharon Bishop, 8 months ago

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.

AlluringCreati..., 8 months ago

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!

What a fantastic shot!! 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!

fantastic capture!

Albert1000, 8 months ago

Oh, I really like this.

billyboy, 8 months ago

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!

Carmen Cilliers, 8 months ago

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

brianjarvis, 8 months ago

Julie Langford, 7 months ago

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
