G'day Lisa,A most apt title for this wonderful primate study.
Good exposure in great light, nice and sharp, a good tight portrait study composition, a great pose, incredibly clear eyes, great eye contact, lovely natural colours and processed very well.
All this gives emphasis to that truly haunting expression.
Wonderful work that girl!
