very cute, nice capture - perhaps a bit more contrast and light would make it even better, but its the expression on his (her?) face that makes this a great photo. have a great 2008!
I thought about the depth of color and squinted at it for a while... it helped mme see some nice compotisional elements, almost half a circle with the white reflections. Then of course, you have the monkey in the center. Imagine what it would have looked like if there had been backlighting, illuminating the hair of the moneky's outline. I like the expression, too.
