Short description

How come you are opposing your own nomination? --MichaelMaggs 22:15, 19 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment Even in a bad dream I would not have thought about nominating the image. It has too many problems even to name them all. Of course the condition of the shooting was even harder than with icebergs (you know these same icebergs about which Ram-Man said: "Icebergs look good like sunsets". )Anyway let's get back to monkeys. These monkeys are behind the stained glass that gives a very, very strong reflection. You hardly could see anything at all leave alone take pictures. Of course as absolutely correctly said Lycaon "But in the end... it is the result that counts..." So I'm not looking for any excuses. I just nominated the picture because Digon3 said about my prior nomination "By the way, "she" has a mustache :) ". See with the monkeys it does not work this way, and here we at last got to the most interesting part of the nomination, which could have some encyclopedic value. I know for sure that the pictured monkey is she. The thing is that the monkeys just got twins and the father is always the one, who carries babies at his back. As you could see that monkey has no babies on her, which clearly shows that in spite she is she, she still has a mustache. On the other hand here's the picture of him also with mustache and with the babies. . I do hope all that she/he/mustache thing does not sound very complicated--Mbz1 17:28, 12 July 2007 (UTC)Mbz1[reply]
  •  Comment I was trying to be funny when I said she has a mustache and I never doubted that it was a she (I am not an animal expert at all). I know that animals come in all different shapes and sizes and I just thought it was funny when compared to humans. --Digon3 talk 18:04, 12 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    • And it was very funny :). By the way you as well could have been right about that nomination. To tell you the truth I've no idea, if that Patas monkey is she or he. I just feel so sad after Richard left us that I try to be funny. Thanks for helping me with that,Digon3 :)--Mbz1 18:14, 12 July 2007 (UTC)Mbz1[reply]
