A good looking monkey found only in Northern Africa, and Puerto Rica where they were imported for medical research!
This one is lucky enough to live in Kidepo Valley National Park,Uganda.

Fine subject. I like the eye color and the focused eye contact. If you can, I think it would be best if processed to get some color into the almost bright white background.
