A sweet shot getting the two together in their different poses Sandy.  I might be tempted to do something about that blue spot (circle) attached to the bottom of the male standing up..... it does rather catch the eye, and not in a good way.

Well, that's a part of the monkey, and the true color of his privates. I wouldn't change or conceal the bright red bottoms of male baboons either. Should we set up an "x-rated" disclaimer for some photos?  lol..

I have seen many vervets but never seen quite such an electric blue as your little guy is displaying.  He must have poked his finger in an electric socket!  Nature never ceases to amaze!!  :D

I like getting a look at this pair in their environment, looking so relaxed. Well done on the lighting of this with the flash to get the detail in the dark tree foreground.
