I forgot how awesome this was. Thought it needed a bump to the comments page. The focus and message couldn't be more clear.

A lovely comment for you from a SC member :P

I love this shot, the vignette works brilliantly and the selective desaturation is really tastefully done. The DoF is great too, fantastic shot.

Impressive...and touching! Would be perfect for a cover animals magazine! Really beautiful! :)

"I like to move it move it..." LOL
This lemur shot reminds me so much of the singing self-proclaimed King lemur from the Madagascar cartoon movie!

I like the vidgnetting and the desat.

Dammit and I thought he only posed that way for me. :P

WOAH. Stunning. Single saturation doesn't always "work, " but man, this is perfect. Love it. The golden yellow of his eyes just jumps out of the page, and the off centering in combination with the natural framing - GOOD STUFF!

Fantastic post processing. With that hand holding on to the cage and the intensity of the eyes, my initial reaction is empathy for this beautiful creature. I like a photo that makes me feel something and you have brought that out very well with this shot.

This has a poster feel to it all the way. Come up with a cool caption and sell it to a calendar company. You couldnt have asked for a better pose. The editing is great with the selective desat and the vignetting. Striking shot all the way around.

I guess it's as try with animals as it is with people. The EYES have it! :-)
