G'day there, Rakesh - I'm SO-O sorry that I haven't visited your gallery in SUCH a long while!! How has everything been going for you? Phil and I trust that ALL is well with you and yours!! :o)

LOL about your title for this image!! The basic instinct of survival, huh?!! ;o) I agree with Sandi, too, "I just don't think that monkey is gonna share...", and the dog is CERTAINLY interested in what he has!! ;o)

Anyway, I LOVE the golden lighting AND tones here...and the textures, details AND composition are all SUPERB!! You REALLY captured the moment, Rakesh!! Have a WONDERFUL weekend, my friend!! :o) #5645892

What a sweet capture, Rakesh! That dog looks hungry! #5744001

Mary K. Robison April 08, 2008

Such a unique combination of creatures side-by-side, Rakesh, and a thought-provoking capture.
That thin dog looks as though he's been through more than a few fights for food --- quite possibly with temple monkeys.
The golden wash across these two is soft and lovely, and a striking contrast to the circumstances bringing them together. #5763919
