Hi Peter,

Wow! What a wonderful family of Gelada Baboons. It's so good to see them like this in their natural habitat. You captured them beautifully as they go about doing what Geladas do. Excellent colors and fine details of the faces and fur. The one staring at you doesn't look too friendly even though you say they are peaceful. A marvelous post of something most of us will never see for ourselves.

Hello Peter,
Your collection of pictures from Ethiopia is fantastic. Every time a new surprise and here a great capture of a splendid Gelada baboon family. I love your composition with the 'boss' in front and their coats are amazing! Excellent details and beautiful colours and a fine soft background that makes the subjects stand out sharply. Well done and thanks for the note too!
Best wishes, Ulla

Hi Peter.
Fantastic scene at whole and so amazing shot by quality. I like wonderful main subject - very attractive group of monkeys - which is supplemented by the most impressive BG. All is brilliant: great details and sharpness of the grass and monkeys, fine exposure of the animal images and remote mountains, superb POV and composition of the image. Bravo. Great job.

Technically a great shot and interesting to view and I thank you for that!

Hello Peter,

What a fine photo you have made! The quality of the image is impresive having a very good sharpnes and an excelent composition. The animals are shown in great details with fine, naturaly looking colors. The fogy weater has been well used as the blurry background enhaces even more the feeling of sharpness main subject is shown with.

Thank you for sharing,
Cristian

Hello Peter,
Very nice and peaceful family! Looks like paradise here. The fact that we don't see their faces from too close, makes them look harmless and friendly. Excellent composition and choice of point of view.

Hi Peter

An amazing view of this Gelada Baboon family!
I've seen a documentary on them once and this looks exactly like that - the whole family, their peacefulness and their surroundings.
The details are terrific here, the different poses are excellent and the look on that big male's face is impressive.
Wonderful colors everywhere and excellent control of the exposure.

Bravo and TFS
