Good Morning,

A pair of colobus monkeys sat staring at each other for a long time and seemed at this precise moment to move towards one another in an embrace.... taken at Port Lympne the Aspinall Foundation conservation park.

Many thanks for the two mods on Tasty, the lighting of the eyes from Lillian and the fun caption from Andrew ( Chiliman) appreciated greatly the time Smile

Again if any of you wish to come along to the BWC on the 19th July we have 4 places left pm for info Smile

I urge large and for window users f11 and ctrl+ ..... for mac user large and cmd+

Many thanks for the comment and votes on Tasty,and indeed a few other images , all votes and positive comment that can encourage and improve are gratefully received and truly appreciated. Colin and Mari

Great well timed shot. Excellent detail and comp. We have seen these in the wild, Kenya, but just fleetingly. Beautiful primates superbly captured.

Love the title and a super well timed capture. What wonderful fur they have, looks as if they've been combing it very carefully to get that white line looking good! Made me smile!

Perhaps not so much a tender moment after all Colin ?
They could be squaring up for a ''Glasgow Kiss'' !!
Good shot.

Oh my...what wonderful timing you had, Colin. This is one superb capture! Lovely detail on the fur too, especially on the white fringe.
Keep the hi-res image of this carefully 'cos this would be good for a wildlife/nature mag.

Not a huge fan of animals in captivity Colin but like the interaction between these two - I have taken several shots of animals in captivity myself but doesn't get the same buzz as when they are wild, count down to holiday and next safari might deliver some wildlife shots - fingers crossed - Ina
