A stunning, telephoto wildlife portrait captures the iconic profile of a male Proboscis Monkey (Nasalis larvatus) perched on a mangrove branch during a spectacular sunset in Sebatik Island, North Kalimantan, Indonesia. Shot with a super-telephoto lens, the image compresses the perspective, bringing the vibrant orange and purple sky and the dense, silhouetted mangrove forest into a beautifully layered backdrop. The calm, tannin-rich river below perfectly reflects the dramatic colors, creating a scene of serene wilderness and highlighting the unique beauty of this endangered primate and its critical habitat. This documentary-style photograph emphasizes the textures of the monkey's fur and the weathered bark, embodying the wild spirit of Borneo's coastal ecosystems.
