gray monkey with baby on rail

This image was shot at the Ubud Sacred Monkey Forest, which lies within the village of Padangtegal in Bali, Indonesia. The village’s residents view the Sacred Monkey Forest as an important spiritual, economic, educational, and conservation center for the village. There are over 700 monkeys roaming around the sanctuary, and the entire experience is actually slightly terrifying (one of the monkeys nearly attacked my friend for her purse). I was able to capture this sweet moment of a Mother monkey and her baby.
