Spider monkeys are not very common in some areas of Costa Rica due to habitat loss. It was a real thrill to find this troop and a mother with its baby and to see that they felt confortable with my presence.

For this one I use

Mark IV

Tripod
FF

Thanks for looking

Hola Juan

Great to see the environment as well as these furry friends. The little guy is well hidden behind mom.

I like the framing of your composition, with the diagonal element of the branches and the leaves giving a pleasing framing to the image. Too bad the baby's head isn't visible, that would've been the icing on the cake.

The mother is certainly checking you out, while the infant is camera shy! A nice find and a well balanced image in their natural environment.
