We at Trend Hunter are not strangers of Jill Greenberg's amazing photography, but this latest installment is like no other. The Jill Greenberg 'Monkey Portraits' project turns primates into supermodels.
Greenberg has used monkeys as her primary subjects! The expressions on the apes' faces in the Jill Greenberg 'Monkey Portraits' series are priceless. It is no wonder that when I am visiting the zoo, I spend most of my time checking out the monkeys.
Implications - Many people are deeply interested in the connection between humans and animals. More specifically, how has evolution affected human life? Photography such as this series provides a unique approach to animals that may have never been explored which makes it more desirable for consumers.
