Monkey Matters – a photographic journey.

I’ve been going through some photos today for an exhibition.

I came across these and I forgot how much I enjoyed the experience. We were in Thailand visiting a Fishing village and our guide took us into the mangroves to feed the monkeys. I took hundreds of photos, most of them made me laugh, but here are just a few.

I do admit to being a little afraid when we had about 10 of them on our boat.

P1030230 — The whole family hangs around in the mangroves waiting.

5Z8A7182 — You stuff in as much as you can.

5Z8A7219 — But you still have to look after the kids.

5Z8A7202 — The best thing to do is jump up and the boat and grab the darn mango.

P1030261 — Belly flop with the kid in tow.

I would have been a bit apprehensive to share the boat with about 10 of those little fellas too, Pam — they are as unpredictable as their human cousins, after all! But clearly you overcame your trepidation to capture some really wonderful photos. I especially love the one of the mom leaping with her baby; don’t know whether to admire her athleticism, or the baby’s ability to hang on! Great post.
