Number 3 is quite nice. The other three don't do anything for me...
Daniel,

nice and sharp where it needs to be, simple composition and the background colour/ bokeh is beautiful. i'd clone out the dead branch bottom right though.

That last one is a cracker...make a great picture for a caption! I would not like to be at the wrong end of those teeth either, especially in his mood...

My preferences are number 2 & 4. Number 3 with the bird does nothing for me. Nothing to keep my interest. Love the crop of and subject placement of number 2 and the expression in number 4 is priceless.
Nice Series

Nice pics.
I think the last one is a bit 'flat' for a black and white....what's it like in colour? The baboons have some great expressions.
I like the composition on the Siamang pic.

I like all of these shots. I think they each work and have a simple construction and a strong point of interest. They are also technically competent. Great work!

Thanks for the comments guys, yeah i agree about the contrast in the last, i wasn't happy with the conversion and being away from home, ive only been using picasa to work images. But have just had a go with CS3 on the last.
On a side note has anyone else noticed picasa introducing noise when shooting .nef files??

A rework of the first image with the dead bit removed and a touch more contrast.
