Snow monkey 2013 #3, a photo from Nagano, Chubu

Photographer's Note

If you hear the name of "Snow Monkeys", you will imagine such secne. Around 3 years ago, yes that was. But recently it is rather difficult to see such secne.
Beacuse the exit of hot spring was loacated in the near from gallarys' deck but the exit was moved to the center of fountain. So it is quite rare to see the monkeys leaning to the rock as such closely.

Dear Takero,

This photo so much makes them look like us: enjoying the hot water in the outside pool, waiting for their drinks.

Best Wishes,
Gy.

Hello Takero

When I lived in Japan, I never had a chancre to see them. This is a splendid image of nature at it's best with the adaptation of them to the hot springs. nice

Bonjour, cher ami Takero,
Alors là, je fonds littéralement devant cette représentation animalière.
Heureusement la fourrure doit les protéger du froid.
Excellente composition.
Amitiés.

Hi dear friend Takero
Triste situation pour ces singes, a cause du réchauffement climatique, eux qui sont habitué au froid, cette image est une très jolie prise, adorable a regarder
Bonne journée

Hello Takero,
Also on the blurred background we can see several monkeys.
The three in the foreground pose nicely in a row.
Amazing images.
Best regards, Paul

Hello Takero,
A beautiful picture of these three endearing old men.
This three seems to me the college of wise old men who grumpy discuss why the exit had to be removed.
Excellent observation!
Have a nice day, groet Rob
