Description

I sometimes wonder why so many people find the giraffe such an appealing creature. Here is a view captured at sunset during my many strolls in the bush not wanting to miss a thing in Africa before the darkness sets in. A time which goes totally lost to the camera and in most cases the eye. Night time is a time for sounds and smells and sadly is lost to share.
This dedicated to all you giraffe fans.
Thank you for comments on my previous mating lion upload:

Gorgeous sky and timing! I too, find myself intrigued by these elongated and graceful animals; seemingly larger than life itself! A beautiful mood and atmosphere--radiant and magnificent!

Hi Piet it has been a long time since I visited your amazing gallery, so sorry for that. This is an amazing sunset, and the Giraffe just seems to finish the picture off perfectly. It reads to be a wonderful place by your intro, and it would be lovely to experience the smells and sounds that you do when on your walks during the evenings there. Love the photo, hugs Jane xx
