While the family and myself were staying at Montford
Cottage in Malawi, every morning I walked down the road to see the Monkeys and Baboons
playing. I have cropped out some fences so you could see them in close up. Also there were huge rocks and trees that they loved scampering over and I wanted you to see their world.
I have more photographs but some people find it
difficult to upload them all sometimes due to slow Internet connections so I
will show you more Baboons with their young on Saturday Critters and also you
will see them then on video.
I hope you enjoyed seeing the Monkeys and Baboons even
through there were not many fences in the post.
By the way, all my Black and White photographs of
yesterday were first taken in colour and apparently this is a better way of
shooting them and then turning them into Black and White. When I publish more B & W on Google+, I
will do another post here on my blog as a lot of you seemed to have enjoyed
them and have even been inspired to try them yourselves.
I apoligise to those who had a sneak preview of tomorrows' post due to me pressing the wrong button today, however I have now deleted it. You will have to wait until then!
I am linking to GOOD FENCES.
Thank you for visiting and also to everyone who leaves
comments.
Baboon moment, they are tremendous, love them.
ReplyDeleteThese are really fun shots. You worked in the fence nicely as well.

Hi Margaret,
ReplyDeleteBeautiful series of images of the baboons.
Very well photographed.

Margaret, I bet they're a 'crafty' bunch...not as innocent as they appear in your images?...[;o)

Utterly amazing ! I can only imagine how wonderful it must be to see these in person. I loved looking at these in the slideshow format. Thanks for doing that on your blog.
ReplyDeleteThe stone wall is lovely. It take me a while to get used to having monkeys and baboons in the neighbourhood. Monkeys are so clever that I imagine they might be a bit of a problem because of the curiosity. :)
ReplyDeleteReally nice, Margaret!
ReplyDeletelooks like they have quite the playground! nice freedom for them.
ReplyDeleteIt looks as if you had some very interesting early-morning entertainment. I enjoyed these photos very much, and I also look forward to seeing more of your black-and-white photos.
ReplyDeleteI can't ever say this enough, I really enjoy looking through your lens!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful post! So full of fun and play!

I love the ones in the middle where you have captured the close ups of their faces! Also I am loving that tree and the very cool rocks! YES to more B&W. Maybe you could do a post on it once a week.
ReplyDeletewhat a wonderful place for them to live, i really like that monkey house and the tree and the big rocks are fantastic... great post and thanks.
ReplyDeleteLove them. And really, really enjoyed watcing them play when I was in India. They have sooo much fun.
ReplyDeleteI can't tell you how many times I have pressed the wrong button Margaret, lots of my sneak previews out there :) I thoroughly enjoyed this post on the monkeys. What fun to see them in the wild. I look forward to your Saturday post.

Wonderful shots of the animals and their playing field.
ReplyDeleteWow, those were really great. That must have been such a fun trip.
ReplyDeleteFascinating critters.
ReplyDeleteMonkeys are so funny to me. I think they act kinda like some of us humans. Cute post.
ReplyDeleteI have done that many times, Margaret, pressing the wrong button. Great post!
ReplyDeleteI certainly enjoyed these images. Such pretty animals - and so exciting to see them in their environment.
ReplyDeleteI really liked the rock walls and enclosures. Great closeups of the baboons and monkeys too. Count me in as a B & W admirer of your photos as well... it's something I always forget to experiment with. Cheerio :D)
ReplyDeleteAfter watching 'Planet of the Apes' these photos make me feel............................uneasy.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photos of an animal that sometimes gets a bad press. Difficult to fence them in.
ReplyDeleteDon´t think those fences will keep the baboons in :)
