I love this composition, Konstaninos -- you must be very pleased with it! The roof of the building frames the monkey perfectly, and the pillars at the lower left keep the eye in the area with the main subject (monkey, of course!) I really like the entire frame, the beautifully out-of-focus dome at the top left, the vegetation at top right, and the angle of the building. Even the wall at the bottom frames the shot perfectly, and the monkey is ideally positioned. I also like the muted tones that give it an almost sepia feeling.

 

I wonder whether perhaps a little dodging of the monkey's face would make this an even better photo. For me, the monkey is a little overpowered by the brightness of the roof. I took the liberty of experimenting with this myself. I dodged the monkey's face and burned in the roof a little. For me, it gives the photo a more even tonality and allows the monkey's face to be more prominent in the frame, as I think it should be (in other words, for me, this photo is about the monkey, not about the roof).

 

Now I'm going to 1) mark this as a favourite and 2) look at your other work. This is very impressive!
