Baby Giraffe Framed by her Family  by alophoto

Baby Giraffe Framed by her Family

This little 4 week old tyke is bigger than me. Her name is Nasha and she is one of the newest babies at our zoo. At 6 feet tall and 154 pounds, this baby still is quite precious and I was taken with her at the zoo this week.

I couldn't believe the amazing timing here, how all the giraffes framed her so beautifully. I was quite pleased with this unusual zoo shot and happy that no one was picking their nose in it:). See yesterday's shot for the reference.

Happy Hump Day.
Awesome capture. Fav.

@jyokota It was how they were all positioned...so many of them right there at once...and I snapped. Very very lucky...blessed...timing:). Thanks!

Clever arrangement of giraffe necks. Extremely clever processing or equally clever timing and POV. Either way - excellent & Fav

@tonydebont This is real...no wild edit. I don't even know if I realized it when I took the shot. But it is my favorite shot of the trip that day. Thanks, Tony!!

This is uncanny! When I go to the zoo, I get mostly butt shots.

@cejaanderson I purposely took a butt shot, too...an elephant, but it didn't come out. Go figure. Love zoo for photos. Thank you!!! Timing was amazing here, though. Sheesh!
