 This was captured in the zoo here in Athens.I like a lot to taking photos from all kind of monkeys and specially taking macro photos from them.It was a suprise to me when i relise that we have a lot of common things,like the hands ,the way we use and catch the tools etc. But only we can put them into the cage.......

Excellent use of shallow DOF! Kinda looks like something from Planet of the Apes.

Would have been a 9 if the whole hand would have been sharp and in focus. 7.

This picture makes me really sad, though it is a very meaningful picture. Very nice use of contrast and color.

Interesting idea though I feel the DOF is a little too shallow since the entire hand is not in focus.
