Hi! I really like some of your pictures, you could shoot some great feelings and actitudes of the animals. But when i see the pictures they make me feel like they were forced, they were king of incomfortable, and if that´s true, i really don´t think the pictures are worthed. So i hope they were happy in that session.

Um, well, some of these pics were kind of scary, but the 1st was funny and the rest of them of that one was funny, but the others were either 2 serious or really scary, like the two where they're opening their mouths, kinda scary. But that's all I have 2 say!!

Sorry to say I don't really want to comment on the photos themselves... I just wanted to point out a technicality that is one of my pet peeves. It may seem trite to other viewers, but I get very frustrated when all of these animals are termed "monkeys" when it is not indeed the case. There are several species seen here that are apes (gibbons), primates (mandrills, gorillas, orangutans, and chimpanzees), and yet other groups not necessarily seen here that aren't "monkeys" either -- like prosimians (bush babies, tarsiers, and lemurs). I have studied some of these groups (gorillas and prosimians in particular) and I know most people aren't educated to the point of knowing all the different groups, but it really is almost an insult to have everything lumped as "monkeys" all the time. Please do everyone a favor and learn at least some of the major distinctions of a few of these groups. You'll sound more intelligent and you'll decrease the number of people that I feel obligated to correct. Thank you!
