Bonjour Steven,
Belle prise avec une lumière très douce. La girafe est parfaitement placée dans le cadre de l'image et j'aime le fait qu'elle s'harmonise parfaitement avec les couleurs de son environnement.
Amicalement, Brigitte

Steven this photo is amazing! As i said many times i love wildlife photography and again, this is awesome photo of giraff in nature.
I can see the equipment you're using here, 100-400, in fact 160-640mm..that gets you a lot closer to animals. I recently bought 70-200 but going to get 2x extender to be able to take photos like this one:)
Well done, best regards,
viktor

La girafe est bien captée avec cette bonne luminosité toute particulière.

Terrific shot. Perfectly sharp, and well-composed (and a VERY impressive piece of glass used to capture it!)

Hi Steven,

Simple composition. Superbly executed.

The colours and contrast are very nice. The positioning of the Giraffe and the DOF is perfect.

Most of all, the atmosphere is stunning.

Cheers,
Guru

Hi Steven,
I've just seen some of your photos on the TE welcome page, that led me to your gallery. Very beautiful work! Congratulations!
I've chosen this picture to comment because I found this giraff very graceful, as you said on the title and in your note. The composition and the sunlight are very pleasant. Nice visual impact!
By the way, I'm curious about your nickname CURIOSO - seems like a Portuguese word :-)
Regards,
Maria do Carmo

Hi Steven,

Beautiful composition and lighting here, and I love the colour scheme- everything looks so hot and drowsy. Well done!
