monkey on the top - 頂上の猿

I like your serial of monkey pictures.
Happy New Year Tetsu! Hope you have a wonderful and creative 2007!

Tetsu-san!!! I like this shot, very beautiful. That monkey sitting atop what looks like a rocky hill, casting long shadows across. Wish you all the best for the coming New Year!!! A smoothsailing year free of worries and filled with good luck!!! Keep your creative juices flowing. Cheers!!!

Great job on keeping detail in the shadows, and good composition; makes him seem perched on a high cliff.

Happy New Year!

I wish you a happy new year and I'm sure that 2007 will come full of good things and with a lot of photos! My best wishes.

This is one of your best quality shots, the image is incredible. You've truly brought this scene to life.

Tetsu,

Your photoblog is such a joy to visit, if only to, at least for me, admire the discipline you bring to such wonderful photos. The story telling, the contrasting faces, highlighting age in your subjects, architexturual lines and angles and the hardest thing of all--making it look so good in B & W. The best for your keen eye and all your fortunes in 2007.

猿山は生き生きしていていいですね。
こちらこそよろしくお願いします！！

This is oddly epic - if only for the Ansel Adams poster my roommates hung downstairs. The seeming incongruity between the scale of the 'mountain' and the monkey makes this a humorous read, and the composition works to boot.

Thanks Matt!!!
