Absolutely love this one! It's so moody in a way. Love the pallet that he's sitting on (though it looks uncomfortable, it really adds interest to the picture.

Looks like the chimp might be ready to cry. Nice processing, it brings out the emotion.

Maybe they just sit there all depressed. Now I am sad again! Love the tones and processing on this.

Utter despair. It looks like they cry so it's the perfect title. This is heartwrenching...what an emotive image! Your editing highlights the gloominess of the shadows, too. I want to cry. This would ribbon for the 'framing challange'.

I suspect that big rope is a toy but with him in that location and position it feels more like a restraint. Nice framing with the posts.
