He sat on the branches opposite. For all his life he had been scared. Scared to do anything. He had been the last to learn to climb. The last to leave his mother's side. The last to hunt on his own (something he still had much trouble doing, and usually tricked others into doing it for him).
But now he was trapped. There was fire consuming the forest around him, and his only hope was to leap to the trees on the other side of the river. It was a mighty jump. A heroic leap. Everyone else had tried and made it, but now here he was, in the last tree, with flames threatening all around.
All his life he had been scared, and he was terrified now. They called to him, but he cowered. He couldn't do it. He wouldn't. He would burn here and it would be a fitting end for his fears and cowardice.
Then, crashing down right beside him came a burning log, and it made such a noise, and sheered the branch beside him clean off.
He panicked.
He jumped. |

Delightful action shot of this monkey swinging from tree to tree. Nice processing,background works well to compliment the silhouette's.
One little niggle.....That little bit of branch at the bottom all by itself...you should have cloned or cropped it out. It just causes a tiny bit of distraction and unbalances this otherwise perfect image just ever so slightly. 8 |

Love the monkey silhouette. The colors are a bit drab but the subject and story is really nice. |

that one orange leaf is really distracting, but other than that it is a great capture and I almost thought those were water ripples in the background...which looks pretty darn cool :) |

Has almost an underwater kind of feel to it - really like the background arches and that one wee bit of color. |

That is split-second timing!! Can't tell if this is the shadow or the actual monkey! |

Neat capture. The long arc shadows behind the monkey almost create an abstract background. |

Very nice capture. The silhouettes alone wouldn't have done it, but the softly out of focus plants in the background add an element of perfection! |

I like the silhouette and the "stripes' in the background lend an interesting touch. Why is the one leaf orange? |
