Questions about the subject, usage, technology & more

What is a dusky leaf monkey and where does it live?

The dusky leaf monkey (Trachypithecus obscurus) is a langur native to Southeast Asia, found in Malaysia, Myanmar, and Thailand. It inhabits tropical forests and protected areas such as Sam Roi Yot National Park. Its name comes from the distinctive pale rings around its eyes. Its diet consists mainly of leaves, fruits, and flowers.

How can this photo be used?

This stock photo is available for commercial use under the Kataloop license. Conservation organizations, NGOs, and environmental campaigns can use it for awareness materials or social media content. Eco-tourism operators focusing on Thailand or Southeast Asia will find it an authentic visual asset. Educational publishers, nature documentaries, and travel magazines are further example use cases.

What mood does this photo convey?

The image carries a documentary, matter-of-fact quality. The dusky leaf monkey at the concrete basin, the simple sign, and the dry ground avoid any romanticized nature aesthetic and instead depict human-wildlife interaction in its practical reality. The second monkey visible in the background reinforces the sense of an unplanned, authentic moment within a protected area.

What equipment was used to capture this photo?

This wildlife shot at Laem Sala Beach was captured with the Sony Alpha 1 (ILCE-1) paired with the FE 24-70mm f/2.8 GM II lens. The zoom range allowed flexible framing from a respectful distance without disturbing the animal. With roughly 50 megapixels of resolution, the image retains fine detail in the monkey's fur, facial expression, and the text on the wildlife sign, making it suitable for large-format prints and tight crops.

What visual style or trend does this photo represent?

Wildlife conservation and human responsibility toward endangered species are widely discussed social topics. Images that depict concrete protective measures such as wildlife water stations meet growing demand for honest, non-idealized representations of nature. In communications by NGOs and conservation projects, authentic documentary photography is increasingly preferred over staged nature imagery.

What is Laem Sala Beach known for?

Laem Sala Beach sits within Sam Roi Yot National Park and offers more than just a scenic coastline. As this photo illustrates, wildlife water stations here support local primates such as the dusky leaf monkey. Surrounded by limestone hills, the beach also serves as the main starting point for the hike to Phraya Nakhon Cave, one of the most photographed natural landmarks in southern Thailand.
