Hey, really nice picture you have captured here!
I only wanted to show you another crop, that places the monkey to a more appealing possition, emphasizing the monkey and its world, leaving the sight direction intact while the side of its back cut.
I've used the rule of 2/3 here. The one that tells, if you place your focus of attention on one of the imaginery lines that separates image to three, you get a ritcher, less distractive picture. To me it seems working. I hope it works to you too.
