HI from the CC Club,

I so want one of those monkeys!!!!!!

So 1st impression: very colorful, very intense. I am tilting my head a little so a bit of straightening out would have worked. Definitely needs some sharpening to bring out clarity and details. In post processing, instead of using the auto for contrast, play around with it, you will find that this also adds some depth to your shadows and makes it a little less flat. Selective colours would be your friend in this shot too as it is so colorful this would have given each colour just a little bit more of an edge.

Good placement for this shot, well done
