Dandelion Delight


This wee squirrel monkey at the Magnetic Hill Zoo, in Moncton, New Brunswick, was perfectly content to pose for me while coyly tossing glances from behind her dandelion... or she was eating it. Probably the latter. What most people don't see is the second monkey hiding jealously behind the dandelions in the foreground about to ambush my model. There was much screeching and scratching amid a cloud of yellow before, in a huff, I bluntly informed them that I was leaving to seek more professional models. And thus, with my mighty influence, I ended their aspiring careers. Crushing their dreams of escaping the confines of their caged and empty lives. Forever shifting the threads in the tapestry of their destiny. I don't think they noticed. (Sony DSLR-A100, 300mm, f/5.6, 1/500, ISO 200)
