I would not have been able to resist titling this "Baboon Buddha"

Expressive subject, nice lighting and DOF -- good work all around.

The back lighting, framing and shalow DOF is what make this a great shot. It is one of those type pictures that is much, much better as a print.

nice backlighting on the fur. I'd like to see a little more contrast in the tones
