Nice shot , well exposed. You have some nice diagonal lines going here. You have filled the frame well. Would be more impactful if we saw more of the eye.

I do agree. These monkeys are so ugly that they make me laugh. But I remind myself that evolution equipped them this way for a reasonable n. Thank you for sharing and best of luck with this image

A strange entry into a strange competition presented here! Your oddly angled composition does not completely convince me that you have photographed a monkey! Exposure and sharpness are good. Good luck!

    look on Google: unfortunately it is true; it is indeed a monkey that only his mom can love

A beautiful picture of this Proboscis Monkey taken from below almost looking up it's elongated nose. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.
Good Luck in the contest.

A very fine shot, especially for this contest where it should be a strong contender. I like the perspective that emphasizes the nose and that little bit of vine above his head that looks a little like a hat. Best of luck in the voting.

I don't know what the other contestants have, but I can't imagine anything uglier than this little guy. The way you shot him from the low angle is perfect. You know low angles give you a double chin and aren't very flattering. So, the angle is so perfect. It almost looks like he is posing there to show you his ugly nose and profile. You have also framed it perfectly. I don't think you could have done it any better. You have shown his ugly side in a super creative manner. Good luck in the contest...you probably got this one.

    thanks a lot karen for your lovely comments;
    I just got a comment from a lady who said he is handsome
reply by karen zima on 01-Dec-2017
    Well, He does look very groomed and now that I'm looking again...his nose looks smaller and more acceptable. He is getting handsomer by the second. I wonder if he smells good, too.

This is a problem for me for these monkeys are the most beautiful in my eyes.

Dearest tuty fruity, you do know he's blurred, that sweet sweet nose and chin are off the grid.

Sorry....and oh, I love their expressive eyes as well.

    many thanks Olga;
    he was moving his nose very fast; lol; it is true because the hairs are much sharper
    it was taken in the jungle of Borneo 17 years ago......with a 2 Mpix Pocket camera.......hiding in the vegetation.....
