I like the color, as always! But they aren't monkeys. They are closer to humans than monkeys. Different branches of the evolutionary tree.

Beth, you really outdid yourself with this portrait! I always seem to gravitate towards color images and this is no exception.

I usually prefer color, but agree with you about the B&W in this case.

Funny I don’t like them particularly either, but they make good subjects!

I believe this is not a monkey it looks like Chacma baboon. I have never seen an African animal that I did not like and I have seen more than the average person. I like the one in color

This is one of my favorites from Kenya. Any photo that shows the love between mom and baby tugs at my heart.

I prefer the B&W, but the color is there for those who don't!

Sorry I have been in birds lately! But decided to share this one!

Nicely done Beth.

Lovely. I usually prefer B&W but in this case, I think the colour is better.

I cannot fathom why anyone would not want the delicate subtlety of the color image. It distinguishes mother from child, and especially in delineating shades and contour, reveals why B/W was supplanted by color in the first place.
