Curious George


This curious little monkey lives at the Como Zoo
Cute little bugger. I had my camera lens pressed up against the glass trying to follow this monkey. He would move, then I would slide the lens for a better angle. All the time we were playing "cat and mouse" with each other, he kept looking into the lens as if trying to see me inside the camera. We had fun for a few moments, then he was off to more monkey business.

WOW! I love this one. I've tried to capture this nutty monkey myself, and he's just so fast! Great Job, Rob.

This is the kind of image that makes me turn round to gary and say that's so cute can I have it. Alas he always says no. Knockout shot
