Being as tall as they are, the giraffe are probably most associated with trees in nature. Since even just the head of a giraffe suggests “tall”, I’ve found you really don’t need to photograph the entire animal to suggest its ultimate feature. Photographing this animal amongst its sister in nature does that for me, thus allowing me to capture both height and facial detail of the animal.
Photographed: January 2009 at Mkhaya Nature Reserve, Swaziland.
