Just after we entered the Ngorongoro Conservation Area a troop of baboons scampered across the road, briefly situating themselves in the trees alongside our vehicle.
Thoughts about crop, processing? Other thoughts?
Asante,
Scott

Mother and child - a universal theme - very nice.

Comment - the focus seems most sharp on her eyes, less so on the infant's eyes and foreground. But then I'm viewing on a laptop with this crappy contact lens prescription.

Regards,

Bob

+1 @ Bob ... universal appeal.

Also, maybe some color banding in a few BG areas. Not sure @ color, maybe a touch warm/yellow.

Thanks guys.
The As Shot white balance leaves the snouts fairly purple and I did warm the temps, probably too far. Cant tell you for sure what the actual color was, since they scampered into the foliage very quickly.

Here is a color temp variation on the first, and an alternate image. Tried to do a better job estimating the color balance.

Tough to tell for sure what WB is sometimes ... but given the choices, your OP holds up better as more pleasing.

Perhaps some light/dark sculpting, mid-tone bump and some yellow and magenta?

I think the focus is off and the contrast needs to be boosted . Composition makes up for some of this.

Bob ... interesting port.

Took a stab at OP with some tweaks.

Like the sepia/black white version most of all
