Reaching to the heavens

Reaching to the heavens

The brewing thunderstorm (yes, in the middle of January!) provided the perfect backdrop one could've hoped and asked for against these tree branches. The sunlight hitting the barren branches just at the right time provided the natural lighting I needed to bring out the detail in the branches!

Another solo...sort of

Another solo...sort of

This is the only shot where I was able to get the entire giraffe into the frame of the picture. And that's only because he wasn't standing upright and had his neck craned forward to feast on some corn! I wish I had had my primary camera here, however, I just made the best use of what I had ;)

And here we have a solo!

And here we have a solo!

Truly majestic and standing tall (literally!) these creatures of nature are full of grace and poise as they lumber down these grounds. Shot handheld with a Canon G9. With the clouds providing the necessary "filtering" of the sunlight, it was a perfect day to be out.

I am the tallest!

I am the tallest!

Truly a magnificent creature, these giraffes were quite friendly and pretty picky about choosing which bystander they would get their food from. There was no way I could get the entire giraffe to fit into my field of view, which is why I waited till the baby (at 7.5' tall they call him a baby!) lumbered into the frame and then captured this. The guy in the foreground is about 25' tall, yes, you read it right, twenty five feet!

Spotted fawn

Spotted fawn

This little guy came running all the way to the wagon in search of food. The lighting was just perfect with the sunlight engulfing the fawn. With the thick cloud cover, there was no need for a filter. Post processed using Snapseed app.
