    Nice picture, good sharpness and DOF.
    Is this really a berber monkey? It looks more like a macaque to me. I have a picture of a berber monkey in my pictureset and they are not so much alike:

The Long-tailed Macaque

The crab-eating macaque, also known as the long-tailed macaque, is a cercopithecine primate native to Southeast Asia. It has a long history alongside humans; they have been alternately seen as agricultural pests, sacred animals in some temples, and more recently, the subject of medical experiments.
