Behind The Lens

Location

Jigokudani Monkey Park, Japan

Time

This image was taken around midday in winter. At this time all the monkeys gather to bath in the hot onsen springs

Lighting

The monkeys do not like human contact, and even though you have to keep your distance, they will usually give you a warning, when you get too close. I suggest you do not smile, as showing of teeth is seen as aggression to them. They are very human like in their social behaviour.

Equipment

Sony Alpha 77 with a zoom lense

Inspiration

The eyes seemed to be the window to his sole.

Editing

Cropped, Sharpened the eyes,

In my camera bag

Sony Alpha A77 Zoom Lense

Feedback

Be Patient
