The giraffe
Giraffa cameloardalis
The giraffe has a flexible and light step, it is an animal which goes to the pace, it raises with each step the two legs on the same side. This particular step enables him to make greater strides, facilitating work muscular and avoiding with its legs knocking itself.
In nature it is exclusively herbivorous.
At the zoo it is nourished with branches with leaves, fruit and vegetables, granulated for oxes, oats crushed, groundnuts, hay.
It is protected in many countries but it is not registered in the convention of Washington (list where all the species of animals in process of extinction are listed). |

Bonjour Guy, bravo pour cette jolie tête de giraffe, j'aime bien le BG tacheté qui rappelle un peu la robe de la giraffe.Peut être legerement surex! Mes félicitations Didier.
Hello Guy. I'm in California but I'm takin' a peek with my laptop. Thanx for your kind words. I've noticed you recently purchased the 350D. Great camera! Sigma makes great lenses also...Good POV for your headshot. You've done well with the hard light conditions also. If you can, try to shoot either early in the day, or later in the afternoon when the light is not directly overhead. Great shot, Thank You!
