[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Taken on the island of Koh Samui. We were driving along and we saw this sign that said "monkey work coconut". They train the monkeys to climb the coconut trees and pick and throw down the coconuts. Here he is twisting off the stem of the coconut after picking it and throwing it to the ground.

Allô Wanda!
Très drôle cette photo avec le singe qui veut s'emparer de la noix de coco.
Intéressante prise de vue.
Félicitations!...

Hi wanda, lovely photo, very nice monkey, well done, ciao Silvio

That appears to be one helluva well fed Moneky Wanda. You've caught the action well with the coconut still in hand. The dude's expression is in itself worth a million pictures!

Hi Wanda!

Nice daily life scene and nice timing! Simple but good composition and good exposure. There is some noice but it doesn't bother me at all. Very good job!

Very funny picture! I like so much the facialexpression of the monkey. Very well seen.

Hahaaah I love it, it a great great scene.

Dear Wanda,
Very much informative note. I heard about it and you demonstrated it. Thanks for posting

Hi Wanda, This is a very cute composition. I wonder who calls the shots here? If annoyed the monkey could likely throw one at the man? Very good to see this on TE. TFS. Murray.
