A perfect three some, love that they are in sync. golden and dry grasses feel warm in the sun to me. Focus is excellent and colors as well. Good luck in the contest.

Comment from FBI GUY
This is so cool. We don't see photos of giraffes very often. This capture is perfect as they are striding away from you. The lighting is varied as the shade and shadows do their thing. Lighting of the surroundings gives us the feeling of Africa at it's finest. I could see this on a canvas as the perfect memory of a great trip.

Ooh I love it when someone does things a little differently! Getting these guys from the back was a wonderful way to do it. Good for YOU!

An excellent entrant for the contest. The colors are so lovely here...all the soft browns and tans w/ that pop of green in the tree. Very nice. Perfect focus and exposure. Just very nicely put together....oops...almost wrote your name.

Anyway...wish you the best w/ it in the contest and am happy to give it my first six of the week. Beautiful job here.

Deborah

Comment from EvaB
Great image. Well exposed and well focused, especially considering that they are running! Well cropped and we see enough of the environment to know that they are wild. Well done.
