Description

I took this photo when she raised her head so one can see the water dropping, instead of the tipical shot, with the head down,

Great thinking Luis! Such a brilliant shot. I just love her legs almost doing the splits and that water dropping! We never got to see giraffes at water holes so never even saw them with their heads down. I can't remember how you tell the difference between a male and a female. Something to do with the horns isn't it? #266643

This is a glorious image Luis, I got to see a giraffe for the first time this year (in April) but alas it wasn't in this wonderful location like you but in a nature zoo.
Such delicate animals - great work, love your gallery.
