Crested black macaque lipsmacking
Crested black macaque (Macaca nigra) lipsmacking. Lipsmacking is an important macaque facial expression in which the lips are smacked together producing an audible sound, while the eyelids are half-lowered. This behaviour is seen during affiliative interactions and may be used as a sign of appeasement or reconciliation after conflict. Photographed in Tangkoko National Park, Northern Sulawesi, Indonesia

23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of intimate communication among the crested black macaques in Tangkoko National Park, Indonesia. The image showcases a crested black macaque engaging in lipsmacking, an important facial expression within their social interactions. As the macaque smacks its lips together, producing an audible sound, its eyelids are half-lowered, creating a mesmerizing sight. Lipsmacking is believed to serve as a means of appeasement or reconciliation after conflicts within the macaque community. This behavior highlights the intricate social dynamics and emotional intelligence present among these primates. The photograph beautifully portrays the delicate balance between vulnerability and strength that exists within nature. Set against the backdrop of lush greenery and vibrant fauna on this Indonesian island, this image transports us into the heart of wild life at its most raw and authentic state. It offers us a glimpse into the fascinating world of zoology and animal behavior studies. The detail captured in this photograph allows us to appreciate every aspect of this magnificent creature - from its expressive eyes to its arboreal features.
