Macaques rest, groom, and explore Ton Sai's rocky beach

Three macaques are resting on a rocky surface, likely in Ton Sai, Thailand. The largest macaque is lying on its back with its eyes closed, appearing to be asleep or very relaxed. Another macaque is seated and appears to be grooming the larger one, while a third, smaller macaque is sitting nearby with its eyes closed. The environment is characterized by large, textured rocks and some scattered debris, including a piece of wood and a frayed rope. The ground is wet in some areas, suggesting recent rainfall or proximity to water.

This image depicts a scenic view of the Andaman Sea off the coast of Ao Nang, Thailand. In the foreground, the deep blue-green water exhibits gentle ripples, reflecting the overcast sky. A traditional Thai longtail boat, carrying several passengers, is positioned in the middle ground, its distinctive wooden prow extending towards the viewer. The boat appears to be cruising. Dominating the left side of the frame are towering limestone karst formations, characteristic of the region's geography. These cliffs are densely covered in lush green vegetation, with their rocky faces partially visible. In the distance, across the water, a hazy coastline is dotted with buildings and other boats, suggesting a populated area. The sky is filled with dramatic, heavy clouds, indicating potentially stormy weather, which casts a diffused light over the entire scene. Several other boats of various sizes are visible on the horizon, further contributing to the impression of a bustling marine environment. A few people are seen swimming or wading in the water near the longtail boat.
