The Forest guards are your eyes & ears whilst in the reserve, so as everyone left for the morning we stopped by the Forest rangers location for fresh intel. As we did and it was safe to do so, I took the opportunity to spend a few moments with the Gray/indian Langurs that frequented the location, playing in the trees, or just sitting watching me, or grooming.

Thanks to those who posted or viewed on the last posting.

Thank you Carol. 

I just thought that a gaze looking away, had more 'impact' than a straight on look.

Good thinking - and definitely true in this instance.

Details look far better when viewed at 1600. Enjoyable. Must say the Sleepy Tiger appeals. great spot light and a refreshing play on light and shadow. Makes all the difference between the usual dross and an image that catches the eye and emotions.
Make your life spectacular!

Many thanks for stopping by David and commenting.

'Details look far better when viewed at 1600px.'

Indeed David, but sadly the Guidelines for posting are much smaller here, when printed big you get to see even more. :)

'Must say the Sleepy Tiger appeals'. I will see what I can do, more to come...
