Critique Club critique:
Composition/Content: I look at the ape and wonder what he is looking at. The angle of his gaze makes the subject of interest off of the frame. I too want to see what has his interest. If the challenge was hair or apes then this image would really apply. But the topic is Song Titles and I think that your image would have scored better if the subject represented the song title "I'm a Believer".
Lighting: The natural outdoor lighting fits the subject, but some details are lost in the shadows.
Background: The natural colored background fits the subject.
Camera Work/Technical: If was possible to zoom in more to get just the face in the frame the exposure might have been longer and more detail might have shown in the face. As the picture was taken, the exposure looks good.
Digital Processing: Color balance looks good and the image is clear.
My Opinion: I think this is a technically excellent photograph. I like the subject and the colors. I like the depth of the image. It is clear what you were trying to accomplish although it might have done better if you chose the title "The Monkees" and actually photographed some monkeys. This image shows talent and technique.

| Hmmm...this is an ape, not a monkey, and I'm not sure what it has to do with the song... |

| This is such a good close up. I love it and it'll be among my favorites. You can almost see him thinking. Just wish I could see a little more of his face, which is so dark anyway. Turned sideways it's hard to really see the features. The difference in his fir going up his arms to the top of his head is amazing. It's a very clear photo. Good one. 9 PTL |

| Funny shot. I'm guessing, it's a him gorilla and not a her monkey. I think I might have bought into this more with the song "Hey Hey, We're The Monkeys" instead. Lighting isn't optimal for a great shot (dark face against light background). Good detail on the top of head hair. 6 Swash |
