Still on my bucket list. I have only manage to capture one in "captivity" - up close so only got the face. Getting like this in nature is seriously cool - but obviously a bit of a challenge as they are so big?
Second image is my favourite by far

Giraffe's are so gentle and nice, but difficult to photograph because of their posture. You did it really well :)
