Excellent detail, good comp. I like the way the adult stands out from the BG, despite such similar color. Shows you got the focus right!

Very rich colors here Jagdeep, perhaps a little too rich (i.e. saturated). I like the portrait pose of the larger monkey, but wish the eye of the second one were visible too. You did not mention exposure settings, but the BG looks a bit noisy to me, despite the good light.

Hi Jagdeep, good capture. I like the soft lighting, detail and composition. How would it look if you selectively darkened just the background a little? Hmmm.

Nice sharp shot Jagdeep - the bg is a bit noisy, and there may be some over-saturation issues as well, but a very touching portrait nonetheless.

I really like the facial expressions, don't mind the side view of the younger one in this composition at all. The 3/4 view of the adult is excellent. Wish I could have subjects like this to shoot, how exciting.
