Thank you. I caught a 'meet the giraffes' event where a raised platform put visitors at giraffe height. I was able to shoot between people with a Canon 70-200 L lens. I'm disappointed at how the palm trees in the lower-right corner turned out, but that was the best I could do in Lightroom. I'm still learning post, and I think I could eliminate them in Photoshop. But, at this point, why bother?

Thank you. I used a telephoto lens to shoot between several people. It was a fun shot to take.

Thank you. The Phoenix Zoo has an elevated platform where visitors can look the giraffes in the eye. I used a telephoto lens to shoot between the people on the platform.

Thank you. I used a 165mm focal length to shoot between people who were viewing the giraffe.

Wow, sometimes it's easier to shoot between people then trying to get to the front! Great shooting!

It looks like he could speak! I love this shot. It is definitely not your average picture of a giraffe...at eye level with him! Fabulous!
