Photographer's Note
A Sadhu (Hindu holy man) carrying a monkey on his shoulder. This was seen on the streets of Pushkar a holy city in Rajasthan where I had gone for the annual camel fair. This was taken using my long zoom at 350 mm.

I like the picture but I dont like the chain tied around the monkeys neck. What wrong has he done? But a top quality picture with the zoom.

hello Sunil,
Its a very good shot you have taken..!! The love between man and animal would have been depicted here well if that chain would not have been there..Its a captive animal I guess..!! and this holy man is using this animal..
This a very good shot and a strong message should be given regarding cruelty to animals along with this shot..!!
Well taken..!!
Regards,
Indro

I like this double portrait - especially their eyes focused on something far away... The car in the background doesn't add anything - luckily the distracting effect is at least partly removed by bokeh...

Hi Sunil,
Nice quality picture with zoom. I like the crystal clear duo portrait. However I agree with poulomi regarding the chain tied around the monkey's neck.

Hi Sunil,
With a 350 mm zoom the clarity you have managed to achieve is something. Contrasting characters here brought out by the shallow DOF.
Best Wishes

Great shot at 350mm. We hear about people using monkeys to make money in various parts of the world....is that what he is doing?.....or is this monkey just a pet the man carries around?
Whatever the case, an interesting photograph.
Great Job.
Aloha, JB
