Did not vote , comment only.

- Green background oversaturated. Recommend to tone down by desaturating yellow channel.
- can improve further by changing your shooting position to exclude the tree trunk behind the monkey's head

Too much detail missing due to processing work...this is evident on the hair and nasal area.
