Old man baboon - re-visited:

G'Day Ingrid:

This really is a good shot; it's sharp, well composed, has good color, and if you ask me, this ol' baboon looks mighty deserving of the respect of his peers, an aging alpha male.

Also, while this is a 'zoo' shot, it's free of any sign of a captive animal, something I personally dislike in animal shots.

Ciao!

Thanks for the feedback guys. I forgot to mention when I uploaded this image that the shot was taken through a very thick plastic screen.
