Wow Mary! This is a wonderful capture of the beautiful lady mandrill, her face draws the viewer right in!
She is well photographed with good focus, this image is sharp and clear, exposure is correct, her colors and tones appear natural. She actually appears to be posing for your lens.
Well composed and presented! It's a pleasure to view!

Female or not I would not like to encounter it pretty much anywhere! Your fine and full composition offers us a good and enjoyable look at your ape? Exposure and sharpness are good. Well taken!

I am impressed by the beauty of this female. Your photo is perfect focused and exposed and has good depth. I enjoy the sharpness and refinement of detail and the realism of color. The Mandrill is excellently placed within the frame. The composition is balanced.

What a beautiful animal. I love the colors of the Mandrill face. You have captured a beautiful pose here. The focus is sharp and clear. The colors are well rendered and the position in the frame is very good. The hand is cut off on the bottom which keeps us from seeing her fingers The background is well done for emphasizing this lovely lady. Nice work Mary ~ Steve

Comment from Sange
It is PLEASING to see white balance Controlled on all colors here... Especially the white on her face. You did a fine job Mary showing off her beauty and those glaring eyes.
I understand the challenges of Zoos with fencing or glass so you did well. My only minor thing is I wish you got her whole hand in at the bottom left.
Very nice work Mary ;)

Great looking shot!. Fine example of wild life photography. Your timing appears to be perfect and you have captured the serious look on Mandrill's face very well.

Oh and triple wow! I think this female is beautiful and you have captured her so well...I'm just disappointed that I don't have the extra star to award this image. It is a six in my opinion.
I love her colors, her flowing fur,
Her mask, and her pose!
Beautiful work!

Hey Mary!
Wow what a gorgeous photo of this beautiful mandril! The focus is sharp and shows off the body language of the mandril beautifully! The fur looks so soft and the background is perfect. Great photo!
