The story behind the image
We had booked a guided ‘sun downer’ excursion and were relaxed, sitting on the back of the 4×4. The afternoon sun was still shining, and then we saw this giraffe. Now, giraffes are not that uncommon, especially when you have been to the Kruger National Park. Yet, we liked the fact that we were quite close, and the light was perfect.

Another beautiful shot of a giraffe in its natural environment. And with a lot of copyspace. Very nice.
