Good shot. The eyes are extremely sharp. s I think a vignette would help with the sky, which I think is a distraction in this photo. I think you would have been better off with a higher f-stop and/or faster shutter speed. The ISO is low enough that it wouldn't needed to be raised much for a f/10 or so and given more sharpness. |

Very nice color and detail One minor thing--I would clone out that bit of background on the lower right. It's a small bit a green that's not needed. The upper right stuff shows the dimensions of the branch but I don't think that other bit is necessary. |

I like t his a lot. I don't have a problem with the positioning of the shot. I think the lines in the floor boards lead into the shot effectively. I think it has a great deal of character as is and like the coloring.
I might try either greater contrast or a judicious application of the dehaze control in Camera Raw in. Adobe--but not too much.
I would clone out what looks like a piece of vegetation across the two floor boards on the left. I'd take a little of the glare off the front of the chair cushion and probably darken that triangular part of where that covering is sagging of that section of the window on the lower right.
There is a very interesting interplay brought about by the different lines, which I think is one of the strengths of the image.. The line where the floor boards meet the wall slant one way while the top of the window slants another. The line of the front of the chair seat slants in a different axis than the floorboards but leading from low on the left to higher on the right . The back of the chair creates a different line running from low on the right to higher on the left. What I find is there's an illusion the top border slants from the left up to the right but when I put it against the the straight line on my tool bar--it's perfectly level--same on the back of the chair. It looks like it slants but it's more or less level with the line in the wall
I looked more and the several lines more or less converge where the seat meets the chair back and the bottom of its left arm--the left front of the chair, the line where the floor meets and wall and you can draw a. line straight from the shiny spot on the left cushion front straight back.

I've seen monkeys like this on PBS
Nice look on the guy in front. I'd lighten the shadows on the face of the grooming monkey although I'm not sure how in focus the face is. This would have been helped by a higher f stop for greater depth of field on the second monkey and the front paw of the first monkey. |

Great shot. Sharp for the most part, colorful, interesting. Lots of good detail.
I would either crop more from the left or get rid of the white area in the lower left corner and what looks like white garden structure in the upper left corner. Maybe darken or desaturate the yellowish background across the top a bit. There is a bit of a focus issue with the back left foot and the area of the tail right below it. |

Great expression and detail. Love all the dirt on them. I agree on contrast I don't think you need the guys on the right or all the feet. I think you could probably remove the two heads behind the bearded guy.
