Challenge 876: The leaping colobus
I photographed this leaping Colobus monkey in the jungles of Zanzibar last weekend. No, OK, you got me, it was an exhibition at the Horniman Museum in London.

Splendid beast, isn't it? I'm sure you can find it a better home.

High res is here.

If Steve photographed this in a museum then it must be a stuffed monkey. Even I have managed to work that out!

Mariner, initially I thought it was another monkey but I'm certain it's Steve's one but with a different head and hands. It's fabulous!

That's great, Loyd. It's the little blink from the front monkey that sells it.

Very nice indeed Mariner, have you worked out your encore yet?

Thanks Anna! Interesting take on the colobus, the skunk does it for me!

Dirty monkeys Anna! Good work.

My entry depends heavily on the atmospheric background created by Rob Wildenburg, which I found yesterday on the net.

Thanks Loyd, I am working on my encore right now.

Re: Challenge 876: The leaping colobus
Great work Loyd...as usual

Nice atmospheric touch Michael

This is one of those rare occasions where a static image is more impressive and has more impact! (No animation)
