Year of the Monkey, smiley Joe

Year of the Monkey

Kam Shan Country Park, also called The Monkey Mountain in Hong Kong.
A habitat of around 5,000 Rhesus monkeys in this region, closed to the
Reservoir "Shek Lei Pui". It is truly an independent region for animals but closely attached to the human habitation.
The monkeys are small and moving very swiftly, photographing them from a low angle, chasing them from ground level by presetting the focus
manually on the lens from a medium format camera.
I like to experience of what they actually seeing at their size and height,
trying to photograph a portrait from this angle particularly of their face expression when in motion.
