Sometimes you catch just the right moment - like this curious monkey in the middle of the Kruger Park, pausing for a moment among the leaves with an orange flower in his hand. As if smelling it, or just wondering if it's edible. I was tucked away with my 400mm lens, and this moment almost felt like I got to peek into his world for a moment.
The flower's warm colours contrast nicely with the greyish fur and deep green of the tree. You keep looking at his gaze - sharp, stubborn, a little dreamy perhaps.
This picture is perfect for the wall if you love wildlife, travel or simply want something in your home that tells a story. It's one of those images that people stop and think about as they walk by. A touch of Africa, straight from nature, with no frills.
Whether you have been to South Africa yourself or just dream of travelling far away, this print brings a slice of safari to your living room, study or bedroom. Every time you see it, you get that little "wow" moment again.
