I have had this picture for years on my computer, but never knew exactly what to do with it because I didn't think it looked good enough to post. Still not sure about it, but I decided to give it a shot. This is some sort of monkey at the Toledo Zoo in Ohio.

Oh those eyes ! He looks so deep in thought and I think he is watching us.
Thanks for another BWC picture Jimbob :)

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

Wow, Jimbob! This came out wonderfully with the selective color in his eyes and super detailed fur! A superb entry into LE'S challenge! Bravo.

The thing that goes the farthest, towards making life worthwhile, it costs the least and does the most, is just a pleasant smile.

You weren't monkeying around when you said "look into my eyes," were you JimboB? Then again, maybe you were.
I believe it has aged well in your computer.

Think there's a good reason not to fulfill its request Jimbob, lol.

Good entry for the challenge mate!

I have some of those images too, Jum. Glad you decided to post it. Beautiful eyes & I like the selective coloring presentation. I detect a bit of shyness or even sadness in the monkey. Excellent!

Did you get in the cage with this guy JimBob - a great close up. You should put this in Lyn's b&W challenge. I like the textures it shows so well in his fur.

Glad you decided to indulge in a little monkey business, Jim...the detail just around the face and eyes and the b/w presents just the right focus on the mood...good one for the challenge.

Love this! The white and black flecked fur, the selective coloring in the eye, and the pensive, maybe even sad, mood makes this image a wonderful B&W portrait.
