How do you capture a rare, remarkable moment that's over in the blink of an eye? Photographer Jeff Kerby found himself with an unbelievable frame while on assignment for National Geographic in Ethiopia photographing gelada monkeys.

While Kerby and a team of researchers were standing near a group of female geladas, one of them—visibly pregnant—started to go into labor. Kerby captured frame-by-frame as the infant emerged, two stunned faces attached to the same body.
