A beautiful capture of the African space and pose of the Giraffe. The cloudy sky is adding allot.

Africa has so many distinct areas, each with its own characteristics. This evocative image is classic 'plains' and the giraffe is perfectly placed! Nicely done Ken.

Evokes such a classic sense of the plains. The clouds add wonderfully, filling up all that sky, Really nice.

Thanks everybody, I think this scene is what most people think of Africa, the reality is of course far different.
There are far more beautiful scenes in Africa.
