Inspired by some of the b&w wildlife photos posted here recently, I returned to this one, which I'd previously thought of only in colour.
Comments?

Very nice! Like the cream tonality. And the composition. I would, however, attempt to bring out a bit more of facial details.

+1. A touch of the dodging brush at about 20%.

Jeremy,
The first moment's glance at this evoked immediate thoughts of the accelerating downfall of man. Due to the similarity of the background to the famous H C-B image of the hooded holy women in India the thought struck me that even the spiritually grounded will be gone and the world left to primates and cockroaches.
Many thanks,
W

I suspect even the primates will surrender to the cockroaches, Walter.

Have we not forgotten the all-conquering ants? They eat roaches for breakfast.
Apparently, in some Far-Eastern lands, cockroaches and associates are considered fried delicacies; when food gets tighter, I fear for the roaches even before they fail to outrun the ants.
This is a cold winter, but I currently have ants running over the desk despite one of those all-singing all-dancing things that you plug into a socket to drive them away. I suspect they (the plugs - but I don't really know...) are a product of the power companies.
