28	Arno Hollander (Sniper 1) (3/9/2004 4:55:03 PM) very powerfull picture with so much details, the expression in the monkeys eyes are beautiful, so is the eye gleam. the black bg is perpect for this picture. and NO!!! ... just can't understand people are capable of killing such beatiful animals. I hope that in a few centuries they still are alive and not only being seen on photographs by mankind, the beats itself... :-( ... regards, Arno
