Moca, thanks for posting here. Very cute shot for sure and nice clean background to boot. In a perfect world, it would be nice to have a little more space in front, maybe head up slightly more, but thats minor. Great shot and thanks again for the post.

Monique,

A picture for the baby album! Very well done. Do you know how tall he was at this point? Thanks for sharing.

Monique, cute indeed and well captured. I will probably visit this little guy later to show him to my granddaughter.

Very cute! Giraffes are one of my favorites, and this is very nicely done. IMHO it's worth sacrificing space in front of the animal in favor of illustrating that loooong neck!
