This is wonderful Jeanine! The colors, clarity, and lighting are great! Love the crop! I even like how part of the tree is there and it looks like he/she was munching on them. Wonderful capture! Can't wait to see more! #6150700

Beautifully captures, Jeanine!
Love the wide presentation.
(Seems like whenever I'm at the zoo, these giraffes are indoors.)
