The Salute

March 18, 2014  •  1 Comment

I visit the Brookfield Zoo quite often to practice my photography. It's a great location for photographers--plenty of interesting subjects and an environment where photography is encouraged.

During my many visits, I have captured pictures of most of the animals in the zoo. Yesterday, I had the opportunity to photograph one of the monkeys inside the Tropic World exhibit for the first time! Based on the signage, I initially thought this was a Capachin Monkey. Now, I'm awaiting a more accurate identification of this primate.

The monkey acknowledged this milestone with a respectful salute!

Nice capture! This a red-faced spider monkey. I was just recently there and got a few monkey and gorilla shots myself. Check out my 500px portfolio at www.500px.com/abzerit when you get a chance.
