The Golden Lion Tamarin. Interesting Story... This little fellow was the "outcast" at birth, the small one. He is now very uncomfortable with the other Golden Lion Tamarin. He just runs around and screams all day until he gets the attention he wants from the zoo keepers. When they final tend to him, he runs up to them and sits on their shoulders and hides behing their heads. Fun to watch though.

Just my quick swag: but it looks like way too much NeatImage or the image is just OOF. The depth of field is AWESOME, but IMHO, the subject needs to be in far better focus to pull off the faded DOF.
An original approach. I'm guessing that many folks will complain about the blurring and abstractness of this one, but I love it. The lighting and the focus on the face is terrific.
