Snow Monkey #5, a photo from Nagano, Chubu

Photographer's Note

Of course, a monkey baby is brougt up by breast feeding. The baby's appealing eye is meaningful and also mother's gentle fingers on the baby's face is attractive. The unconsious expression for affection is quite same as a human being.

A fine example of motherly love, or maybe motherly instincts. A well cropped piture with excellent sharpness and colours. It's really quite touching.
Kind regards,

Hi Takero
Once again, a superb shot of monkeys. The intimacy and the emotional bond between the mother and her little one is obvious and touching. The sharpness is excllent, the colors emphasize perfectly the faces. Very well framed, and shot with a good timing, while the little monkey turns its look towards you!
Congratulations
Regards
Marine

Your series of photos on the snow monkeys is brilliant. I have been to this location near Nagano. It was summer time and unfortunately I never captured any photos to compare with yours. Cheers, Marlene

Hi Takero,

Motherhood requires no language. The beauty of this image is beyond words and it would have looked as precious if there was no notes too.

Congratulations

Hi Takero,
this is very representative of "mother care", how tender and gentle that hand on her baby's head, how tender that head looking down towards him, and how beautiful those innocent eyes and that little hand and arm grabbing to his mom....

Really an amazing moment you got here!

Cheers.
Paulo
